Office Manager, San Francisco

About the Role

Apollo is opening a new office in San Francisco, and we're looking for an Office Manager to own the day-to-day operations of the space. Reporting to the Chief of Staff, this person will make sure the office is safe, welcoming, and productive, from front-of-house hospitality to vendor coordination to onboarding logistics.

This role is about more than keeping the lights on. You will bring structure and follow-through to a growing office, working closely with the Chief of Staff, IT Team, and People Team to keep operations running smoothly as the team scales. You will set the tone for anyone who walks through the door, whether that is a new hire on day one or a visiting executive.

The ideal candidate is proactive, detail oriented, and genuinely enjoys creating a great workplace experience. You are just as comfortable managing vendors and logistics as you are greeting a visitor with a warm welcome.

What You'll Do

Office Operations & Vendor Management

Support the day-to-day operations of the office environment to ensure it remains safe, welcoming, and productive.

Collaborate with the Chief of Staff to implement office policies, coordinate logistics, and support company initiatives.

Maintain inventory of office supplies and oversee restocking of all common areas.

Report and follow up on facility maintenance issues, working closely with building management and approved vendors. Obtain a minimum of three invoices or quotes per service, per policy.

Coordinate vendors and contractors end to end: schedule the work, follow through, and catch issues before they become visible problems.

Workplace Experience, Onboarding & Events

Greet visitors and ensure a smooth check-in experience that reflects Apollo's brand and hospitality standards.

Manage badge and access administration, including access for visitors, card deactivation, and a monthly review of active access cards.

Own onsite onboarding activities and office onboarding logistics in collaboration with IT and People Ops, including welcome and orientation touchpoints.

Help coordinate in-office events, employee recognition moments, and team gatherings with direction from the Chief of Staff.

Maintain organization and daily presentation of communal spaces such as kitchens, conference rooms, and shared desks.

Health, Safety & Compliance

Assist in safety procedures and help coordinate office readiness, such as fire drills and ergonomic checks.

Ensure signage, office protocols, and emergency materials are maintained and up to date.

Act as a point of contact during minor incidents or office-related disruptions, escalating appropriately to building management and leadership.

Work closely with Apollo's safety and compliance stakeholders on any office-related safety requests.

The office runs smoothly day to day, and issues are resolved before they become disruptions.

Organization: Strong organizational and time management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple requests at once.

Communication: Clear, friendly communication style, written and verbal, with a service-oriented, hospitality mindset.
