Are you a natural connector who loves turning ideas into action?
As one of Australia’s most enduring business incubators, it stands as a beacon of innovation and support for regional enterprises. Offering a powerhouse of services, education, and resources, it fuels regional economic vitality, job creation, and robust business communities. Since January 2019, The Generator in Gympie has emerged as a vibrant coworking and besoke meeting space, in the centre of Mary Street. It’s a place where ideas soar and collaboration is the daily buzz. Here, a dynamic community of forward-thinkers and visionaries converge, making it their regular launchpad for success. We’re beginning a brand-new chapter where we are looking for a Community Manager to take the Generator forward in its new location.
Join the movement where regional business thrives and connections are made. The Generator isn’t just a space; it’s where the future of business takes flight! 🌟
Our community at the Generator includes a variety of individuals including:
- Those looking for a refreshing change from their home office.
- Travelling professionals in search of a reliable ‘home base’ during their stay in town.
- Entrepreneurs who like the company of like-minded people but also value the autonomy of their own workspace.
- Business owners seeking time away from the distractions at their usual premises.
- Enthusiastic people who simply love the atmosphere at The Generator!
Due to growth within the Regional Business HQ team, we are now searching for our next superstar Community Manager to elevate the Gympie Generator to the next phase of growth and expansion.
Who are you?
We need someone who is not just a manager but a community builder. You will likely enjoy this role if you are comfortable with all of the following:
- Love working autonomously while being part of a great team!
- Being the go-to person for any questions in your current role. You can engage with people from all walks of life and make them feel at home AND you enjoy doing so for the majority of your work day.
- Keeping facilities in your work area spic and span and in excellent condition for any visitors or staff to enjoy (this occasionally means replenishing stock levels in the shared kitchen facilities including milk, tea, coffee etc.)
- Being able to see connections between people before they can and doing everything in your power to ensure those connections happen.
- You know how to throw a great event that brings people together and fosters collaboration and you enjoy organising and running events from start to finish no matter how small or large the event.
- Being in the spotlight, being that familiar face at events and meetings both internally and externally and being known for talking up and sharing your opinions and for your ability to re-energise from being with people (this role will not be your jam if you are left exhausted after social or networking events and need to hibernate away from people to regain your energy and zest for life).
- Creating innovative and new way of marketing products and services across multiple platforms as well as creating compelling content for social media and our website to keep our community informed and excited.
- You’re comfortable using Microsoft 365 and other digital tools to manage our community and events.
- You’re excited about the startup world and eager to support local entrepreneurs in their journey.
