Surry Hills, Australia The Commons Full time

**About The Commons**

The Commons is an ecosystem of entrepreneurs, businesses, and curious minds—working, connecting, and growing under a common roof. Driven by the sincere desire to see people flourish, we support curiosity and believe in the collective power of people to instigate change. Our focus is on building and strengthening community, and we challenge the status quo in an effort to innovate.

As a fast-growing team, we offer endless opportunities for professional development, career progression, and collaboration with some of the brightest minds in the industry. We thrive on creativity, innovation, and a strong team culture that champions fresh ideas and ambitious thinking. If you're looking for a dynamic workplace where no two days are the same, where your contributions truly make an impact, and where you’ll be surrounded by passionate, like-minded individuals - The Commons is the place to be.

**About the Role**

Are you a master at building connections and creating engaging communities? The Commons is seeking a passionate and creative Community Manager to take one of our vibrant spaces to the next level. As the Community Manager, you'll be the heartbeat of our community, responsible for fostering a supportive and collaborative environment where professionals from various industries can thrive together. We believe that a successful community goes beyond providing shared office spaces. We're looking for someone who understands the power of cultivating an inclusive and dynamic community. Your enthusiasm for connecting with others, your knack for organising engaging activities, and your ability to foster a sense of belonging will be key in making The Commons the go-to destination for professionals looking for more than just a desk.

**About You**

You’re an energising presence who thrives in dynamic environments and leads with heart, purpose, and initiative. You’re not just a people person—you’re a people champion. Whether it’s remembering someone’s coffee order or connecting a freelancer with their next big client, you have an innate ability to make people feel seen, supported, and empowered. You believe that a workspace should be more than just four walls—it should be a community, a launchpad for ideas, and a place where every member feels they belong. Your leadership style is inclusive and hands-on—you roll up your sleeves, inspire your team, and deliver experiences that make The Commons feel like a second home for its members.

You’re confident managing operations and people, unflappable under pressure, and consistently solutions-focused. You get a buzz from juggling competing priorities, whether it’s onboarding a new member, managing facilities, or planning an after-work event that everyone talks about. You don’t just thrive in fast-paced environments—you elevate them
