At Livefront, we help companies design and build world-class digital products that command attention and inspire joy. We’ve helped household names like Target, Samsung, General Mills, and Optum create experiences that have reached millions of people, and startups like HomeSpotter and Acclaim build entirely new businesses that challenge their industries’ status quo.

We’re looking for a capable, reliable Office Manager for our Minneapolis HQ! This is a full-time, salaried position. 

Who you are
You are a naturally energetic host and caretaker with a passion for community. Creating meaningful connections comes naturally to you, and it allows you to anticipate the needs of the team you support. You’re extremely organized, fret about the details, and can multitask better than anyone you know. You have a history of success in office management and/or executive assistantship including event planning, facility management, and administrative support. You have a demonstrated ability to prioritize workload and shift attention among changing tasks and priorities. Above all, you’re a self-starter who thrives in autonomy and can work effectively with little oversight.

What you will be doing
Employee Engagement
- Manage and coordinate logistics for Livefront’s annual team retreat, including meeting spaces, catering and vendors, meals, AV, and team transportation.

- Manage various regular administrative tasks. Examples include: managing Livefront’s vacation calendar and journal, filing and distributing meeting recordings, and organizing digital and physical assets (swag, photo/video content, electronics).
- Support the CEO and other members of the leadership team in an administrative capacity, as needed.
- Assist with special projects, as needed.
