Job description

Resident is a private workspace designed for founders, early-stage teams, and high-performing professionals seeking curated, values-aligned communities. We vet every member company for cultural and strategic fit. Resident focuses on private offices, hospitality-driven service, and proactive community building that enables meaningful professional relationships and collaboration.

This is your chance to join early and play a critical role in shaping the energy, culture, and daily rhythm of our flagship space in NYC. You’ll report directly to our Head of Community and work alongside our Founder & CEO, a successful entrepreneur with a previous exit, and gain firsthand experience building a brand and business from the ground up.

About the Role

This role is for a generalist. Someone resourceful, curious, and hands-on. You might not have all the answers, but you know how to find them. You’re entrepreneurial by nature, creative by instinct, and thrive in fast-moving environments.

You’ll work directly with a founder who previously built and sold a tech company, and you’ll be part of building something new from the ground up. If you’re looking for structure and predictability, this probably isn’t for you.

Job Description

What You’ll Actually Do

You'll do a lot of things, but below are a few that come to mind:

• Help run private, invite-only events with NYC’s top founders and investors
• Build and grow an in-person community (not just online)
• Draft content for newsletters and social that feels human and useful
• Help shape early brand and marketing strategy
• Manage thoughtful outreach to potential guests and collaborators
• Brainstorm themes and ideas that make our events memorable
• Create swag and merch people are proud to wear
• Set up systems and automations to keep things running smoothly
• Document all learnings and processes

Who You Are

• A creative thinker
• Proactive and curious
• Comfortable with ambiguity
• Energized by building
• Personable and friendly
• You keep a pulse on things that are happening in the city

What You’ll Get

• Direct mentorship from an experienced founder
• Real-time experience building a startup from the earliest of the stages
• A seat at the table at thoughtfully curated private events
• A crash course in community building, branding, and marketing
• A role that’s anything but corporate
