Office Assistant
TLDR
Run Pilot operations, automate recurring tasks, and ensure new team members receive equipment before day one.
About the role
Full-time, on-site at Pilot. Reports to the Workplace department in Administration.
Neato is growing, with team members at Pilot and working remotely. This role makes sure every new team member is ready to work on day one and has what they need while they're here.
You'll run Pilot day to day: the front door, the space, the supplies and the vendors that keep it working. You'll also ship equipment to remote team members, so Pilot is the home base for everyone, not just the people in the building.
We hire people only for work a system or AI can't do. That means this job is the hands-on part: being here, setting things up, fixing what's wrong. The repetitive parts, like reorders, call routing, and reminders, run on tools you set up and manage.
What you'll own:
1. Everyone lands ready
- Pilot team members: desk, equipment, badge and logins checked and a welcome in place before day one. You meet them at the door.
- Remote team members: laptop and starter kit ordered, set up, shipped and confirmed delivered before day one.
- Equipment list: every laptop, monitor and badge assigned to a named person and kept current.
2. Pilot runs smoothly
- Greet visitors, vendors and candidates, and run check-in.
- Run the main phone line through an automated attendant, and handle what it can't.
- Keep the kitchen, common areas and conference rooms clean and ready, and set up rooms for interviews and team sessions.
- Receive mail and packages, and handle deliveries.
- Report and follow up on building and facilities issues until they're fixed.
3. Pilot costs only what it should
- Set par levels and recurring orders for supplies, kitchen and breakroom, and manage the exceptions.
- Run team lunches, meeting catering and office events on a set schedule and budget.
- Keep every office vendor (coffee, cleaning, water, copier, snacks and similar) on the Workplace contract list with an owner, cost, renewal date and notice date. Flag each one 60 days before it renews.
- Report Pilot spend each month against budget.
4. Records stay true
- Each month, compare the equipment list, badge list and seating chart to the active roster, and send every mismatch to Head of People.
