About the Role

Runs the day-to-day operations of the Spring Works workspace. The majority of the job is standard office management; the smaller (but distinctive) part is shop support — helping the engineering team with ordering, deliveries, and experiment logistics.

Key Responsibilities

• Keep the office running: supplies, food, kitchen, and common areas
• Coordinate janitorial service, building maintenance, and office vendors
• Place orders on request (link + quantity); receive, unpack, check, and log deliveries
• Pack and ship outbound packages (parts to machinists, equipment to test sites)
• Follow written test protocols to support ongoing experiments (reading values, resetting stations)
• Help keep the shop stocked and orderly: consumables, fasteners, PPE, cleaning supplies
• Maintain safe shop standards (clear walkways, labelled storage)
• Help coordinate the move to a new facility: furniture ordering, delivery scheduling, setup

Requirements

• 3+ years in office management, operations coordination, facilities, or shop support
• High attention to detail; organised with good record-keeping
• Confident with spreadsheets and email (Google Suite)
• Comfortable in a working shop; able to lift 50 lbs
• Willing to be on-site — this is not a remote role
