About the Role

As a Workplace Experience Associate, you will be the face and heartbeat of an executive conference center designed to deliver an exceptional workplace experience for our client’s employees and guests. You’ll manage guest flow, and ensure meetings run seamlessly—from the first greeting to the final farewell. You’ll anchor the catering kitchen and directly support meeting room readiness, visitor coordination and basic workplace services. This role thrives on consistency—daily rhythms, checklists, and service rituals will be core to your success. You’ll collaborate closely with conference operations, AV, catering partners, security, and workplace teams to ensure every interaction and space reflects our hospitality standards.

You’ll Love This Role If...
  • You take pride in creating a calm, confident welcome that helps people feel immediately at ease.
  • You appreciate steady routines and like being the reliable person others can count on.
  • You enjoy being part of a team that values professionalism, kindness, and making everyone feel they belong in the workplace.
This Role Isn’t For You If...
  • You don’t feel like the little details matter (labels are facing forward, chairs are pushed in, etc.).
  • You’re not energized by helping people feel comfortable, informed, or confident navigating a space.
Conference Center & Meeting Support
  • Execute meeting room setups, resets, and light cleanup to ensure spaces remain guest‑ready.
  • Support catering partners with delivery coordination, presentation standards, and replenishment.
  • Coordinate with AV and operations teams so meetings start smoothly and issues are addressed quickly.
  • Help manage transitions between back‑to‑back meetings or events.
Arrival Experience
  • Deliver a warm, polished, and anticipatory welcome for all employees and guests.
  • Manage guest check‑in, access coordination, and wayfinding in partnership with security.
  • Maintain a calm, organized, and visually refined reception environment.
  • Guide the flow of arrivals and departures so every interaction feels seamless.
Workplace Services & Space Readiness
  • Conduct frequent walkthroughs to confirm room cleanliness, supplies, and basic functionality.
  • Assist with light administrative tasks such as signage updates, delivery coordination, and vendor check‑ins.
Service Culture
  • Embody our hospitality principles—Welcomed, Empowered, Belonging—across every touchpoint.
  • Uphold our proprietary Steps of Service in all guest interactions.
  • Communicate clearly and empathetically when assisting guests or resolving requests.
  • Participate in service training, audits, and continuous improvement activities.
Compensation

The compensation for this full‑time role ranges from $28.00 - $31.00 an hour. The successful candidate’s actual base compensation will be based upon a variety of factors, including but not limited to work experience, job‑related knowledge, skills, and professional qualifications.

Base and bonus compensation are just two components of Industrious’ total compensation package that may be available to employees. Other great employee perks and benefits include heavily subsidized healthcare plans, paid time off, wellness programs, professional development grants, 401(k) plan and many other benefits, subject to applicable eligibility criteria and company policies.
