Job Description
As Campus Manager, you will run day-to-day operations across Blue Garage. You will fill the space with the right members, look after them once they are in, keep the building running smoothly, and help us build the systems that will allow us to replicate this across multiple sites as we grow.
Fill the space
Run tours and convert them into signed licences. This is the single most important commercial skill in this role.
Qualify enquiries. Not every business belongs at Blue Garage, and saying no to the wrong ones protects our community.
Own the sales pipeline from first enquiry to move-in, hitting occupancy and revenue targets each month.
Look after the people already here
Be the face of Blue Garage. Members should know who you are within a week of joining.
Onboard people properly, introduce them to the right people, and make sure they know how to use the workshops and how to engage with Blue Factory.
Notice things. Who is thriving, who is struggling, who should be talking to whom. This is the quiet work that makes the difference and keeps building our supportive culture.
Run the buildings
Keep things clean, safe, functional, and presentable. Manage suppliers and contractors.
Lead on health and safety, fire safety, and workshop access protocols. In a semi-industrial building with forklifts, a goods lift, machine rooms, and a working factory, this is crucial.
Manage bookings, licences, invoicing, and access. Fix the admin that is not working.
What we are looking for
You have run a co-working space, members club, studio complex, or something similar. You know how these buildings actually work.
You are commercially proactive. You take ownership of filling the space and closing deals.
You are mission-aligned. Blue Garage exists to support small creative and hardware businesses through the hardest part of their journey. That matters to you.
You are comfortable with ambiguity and a fast pace. Blue Garage is growing quickly and the role will grow with it.

Job Responsibilities
