About Resident
Resident is a company club for startups and growing teams.
We opened our first location a little over a year ago and now run three across Manhattan, with a fourth, our largest yet, on the way.
Our members include AI companies, post-exit founders, investors, consumer brands, agencies, and media and tech startups, from two-person teams to companies with more than 100 people.
Why Resident?
When most people see a community role at a coworking space, they think of it as an office manager job.
That's not how we see it.
What an AI research scientist is to OpenAI, a great Head of Community is to us at Resident.
The space matters, but what keeps members here is the people they meet and the ways they end up helping each other.
Making that happen every day, for a two-person startup and for a 100-person company alike, is this job.
The Role
We're hiring a Head of Community to join our leadership team.
You'll report directly to our Founder & CEO, an entrepreneur with a previous exit.
You'll spend most of your day communicating with members.
You'll own the member experience at your location from move-in through every renewal, be the main point of contact for our largest member companies, and lead a small team of Community Associates.
You'll have a home club and spend time across our other locations, so you know every space and can step in wherever you're needed.
What You'll Do
MEMBERS




Know every member by name, what their company does, and what they're working toward
Make introductions between members that lead somewhere, and follow up to see what came of them
Onboard new members and teams so they feel at home
LARGER MEMBER COMPANIES
Own the relationship with our enterprise clients
Set clear expectations at move-in, hold regular check-ins, and make sure issues have an owner and a timeline
Listen closely: what looks small to us can matter a lot to a 100-person client.
Spot problems before they become escalations.
PROGRAMMING
Set the daily rhythm of the workspace
Host workshops and social events
Run member and team surveys, and act on what you hear
Find small, thoughtful ways to show members we're paying attention
RETENTION AND GROWTH
Own renewals and retention for your members
Spot when a team is ready for a bigger space or needs to be relocated to a different location
Conduct tours and close deals for current memberships
Work with the other leaders and our CEO on the community and client playbook we'll take to every new location
TEAM AND OPERATIONS
Hire, train and manage Community Associates
Be the main point of contact for member requests,



and work closely with our Head of Operations on the space, vendors and anything that breaks
Set the standard for how the workspace feels day to day, from coworking etiquette to how guests are welcomed
Who You Are
You've spent several years in client or customer success at a tech company, and you've managed relationships with larger or enterprise customers
You've handled demanding clients without losing your cool, and you know how to turn a frustrated customer into a loyal one
You genuinely enjoy people and remember the details about them
You're organized, you meet deadlines, and you stay calm when five things happen at once
You write clearly and warmly
You like early-stage environments and are happy to pick up work that falls outside your job description
You want this job specifically.
You're excited about building community as a craft, not looking at it as a stepping stone.
Experience in coworking or real estate isn't required, and we'll teach you the space.
Why Join
If you've done customer success at a software company and want to see what it looks like when the relationship happens in person, every day, we'd especially like to hear from you.
You'll be on the leadership team of a profitable company that's still small enough for your ideas to shape how it runs
You'll build real relationships with founders, operators and investors across New York's startup community
We're opening more locations, and the playbook you help build will run in each of them
