Office Manager / HR Specialist (AD AGENCY)
Plan B is on the hunt for a highly organized, overly communicative “go-getter” type to become the indispensable hub of our multi-spoked operation. As the agency’s INTERNAL SYSTEMS & CULTURE COORDINATOR you’ll be responsible for coordinating the efforts of our company’s many vital functions and departments, from Office Management and HR to Finance, Technology, Account Service and Creative.
Your impact will be felt agency-wide as you collaborate with department heads, agency leadership and outside partners to streamline efficiency and enable all staff to do their best work.
This INTERNAL SYSTEMS & CULTURE COORDINATOR role is primarily an on-site position. Regularly attending work on-site (5 days a week), at our Chicago River North location, is essential for the success of the company, our clients and entire Plan B team.
The ideal candidate will be a proactive and detail-oriented “doer” who’s obsessed with staying on top (and ahead) of things. Someone who’s more than comfortable using the digital project management tools, from Google Suite to basic accounting and project management software. You’ll be in charge of managing critical agency communications so you’ll need some understanding of what it takes to project manage the various needs for the agency.
Plan B’s recently renovated loft space is a highly collaborative work environment in the heart of Chicago’s bustling River North entertainment district. Surrounded by dining, shopping, and easy transit…you’ll enjoy urban working at its finest. Collaborate with colleagues at an outdoor lunch cafe or brainstorm ways to keep the team energized over an afternoon latte. Fuel your passion for being the ‘point-person’ and become the centerpiece of our ‘exceptional’ agency culture –– one that rewards hustle, guts, and instinct.
The Internal Project Manager at Plan B…
