About South Park Commons

South Park Commons is a home for the most talented technologists, builders, and domain-experts figuring out what's next. We believe good ideas very rarely come about in isolation and have created this community to promote judgment-free exploration and help our members discover new ways of impacting the world.

Members of South Park Commons have built 150+ venture-backed companies, dozens of non-profits and social impact ventures, and published 20+ papers on technical topics. For technologists working on new endeavors, South Park Commons is the best place to be. Our community was covered in the New York Times, TechCrunch, and Wired.

Our community brings technologists together for intellectual support, accountability, and connections as they explore their next venture. We host large speaker events, as well as small peer-to-peer support groups and social gatherings.

The SPC-SF Office Manager Role

SPC is a community for exploration, a process that requires bringing our members together to spark new ideas. This role is an opportunity to support in-person collaboration, connection, and creation in our San Francisco community space.

The SPC SF Office Manager is the person who keeps our San Francisco office buzzing, by enabling collaboration, creation, and productivity among our members. This person discovers and executes upon new activities, events, and other ways to bring our community together and support the work of members.

This role is based in San Francisco. The SPC SF Office Manager would work out of our community space at 27 South Park St.

Responsibilities

• Office Management — Handle the logistics of the space including communicating with office vendors, purchasing equipment, and getting members access. You are the go-to person for answering member questions about the space and collecting member feedback to improve our office’s design and utilization.
• Events — Organize regular San Francisco events that facilitate connections amongst members and alumni, and spur new traditions in our community (examples: weekly socials, hackathons, and visits to local university labs and industrial facilities). You will manage event scheduling, speaker coordination, and work with our staff to provide on-the-ground support for events like our summer BBQ or speaker series (these are occasionally evening events).
• Community-building — A primary goal will be supporting a vibrant community of technologists and domain experts in our San Francisco space. Communities don’t just happen on their own. As new members join us each month, you will establish an in-person connection with those in San Francisco and be a friendly face that they can go to for help, questions, or concerns during their exploration. You will also experiment with new social activities that connect people and ideas to help them maximize their time here.
