Job description

Overview

We are a venture creation group designed for repeat founders who want to do it again, but sharper, faster, and with more firepower. We thrive in intersectionality - the stretch between technology and opportunity, idea and scale, traction and true momentum. Our name, Liminal, speaks to that threshold. We co-found startups with seasoned founders who know how hard this gets. And then we get in the trenches with them - from MVP to Series B and beyond. We bring capital, conviction, clarity, and co-founding builders.

What’s it like working here?

This isn’t a "keep the calendar and call it a day" role. This is a nerve center. The unseen scaffolding that keeps the building standing. We operate like owners. We sweat the strategy and the sentence structure.

• No heroics. No rockstars. Just people who know how to listen, decide, and follow through.
• We build in teams that feel like crews. Not silos. Not status ladders.
• Feedback is fuel, not friction
• We celebrate momentum, not motion.
• We show up — in the trenches, on the term sheet, above the fray.

The role: Programs & Coordination

We’re looking for someone who thrives on creating order, discretion, and forward momentum behind the scenes for this Programs & Coordination role. This person wears multiple hats: business operations for our growing hub in Boston, executive support to our leadership team and workplace orchestrator. It’s perfect if you are equal parts meticulous operator, savvy communicator, and calm problem-solver.

What you’ll be doing

Business Operations Support

• Support cross-functional workflows such as vendor onboarding, internal approvals, and ad hoc operational problem-solving.
• Manage onboarding and administration of internal tech tools (e.g., Google Workspace, Notion, WhatsApp, Slack) and maintain user access and permissions.
• Help identify and implement improvements that make studio operations more effective and scalable.

Executive Support & Administration

• Manage complex calendars for the leadership team - prioritize high-value meetings, resolve conflicts, and ensure executives are fully briefed in advance.
• Schedule and coordinate key studio-wide events and cross-functional team meetings; ensure agendas, logistics, and action items are handled.
• Maintain organized workflows, document management systems, and ensure timely access to important and operational information.
• Arrange travel and accommodations; manage expense submissions, reimbursements, and approval flows.

Workplace & Culture Support

• Assist with planning and executing internal team events, offsites, and casual celebrations.
• Support team engagement initiatives that promote connectivity and belonging across distributed teams.

You’ll thrive in this role if you are...

• A master coordinator: You love orchestrating moving parts until they click into place.
• Discreet and trustworthy: You understand the sensitivity of founder and leadership interactions.
• Proactive and anticipatory: You think two steps ahead and don’t wait to be asked.
• Tech-savvy: You are comfortable with tools like Google Workspace, Notion, WhatsApp, Slack, Zoom, and quick to learn new platforms.
• Detail-obsessed: You notice the small things that elevate good to great.
• Clear and concise: You write, speak, and structure information in a way that makes others’ jobs easier.
• Unflappable: Last-minute changes? Shifting priorities? You adapt and keep moving.
• Beyond comfortable with ambiguity: You thrive working through ambiguous situations.

Why you might join

• Because you’re ready for a next chapter that challenges you, is more honest, and more alive.
• Because you get to work alongside exceptional founders, and a team of bright, talented builders.
• Because you’re not just looking for a job, you’re looking to co-own the work that helps Liminal thrive.
