MAKING THE METALS POWERING THE WORLD Solcoa is building the next generation of American metalmaking, starting with rare earths — the metals of power and motion. We've developed a new chemistry that converts rare earth oxides into high-purity metals — the materials inside every EV, fighter jet, wind turbine, and data center — cleaner, cheaper, and faster than any conventional process. Now we're scaling it to thousands of tonnes of annual production. THE ROLE — OFFICE & OPERATIONS MANAGER Keep a fast-moving industrial startup running. You'll own the day-to-day operations of our facility — office, vendors, purchasing support, onboarding, events. You'll be the first person many candidates, customers, and investors meet, and the person the whole team relies on to make problems disappear. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Run daily office operations: supplies, deliveries, food program, facilities requests, and vendor relationships. - Own purchasing support—place and track orders for parts, equipment, and consumables; chase lead times; reconcile receipts against POs. - Coordinate onboarding for new hires: workspace, equipment, badges, accounts, and first-week logistics. - Manage calendars, travel, and logistics for the leadership team; schedule interviews and customer/investor visits. - Plan team events, all-hands, and visits from customers, investors, and government stakeholders. - Support HR and finance operations, insurance paperwork, invoice processing, and expense management. - Keep the office and common areas organized, stocked, and presentable—and build the systems so it stays that way. WHAT YOU BRING REQUIRED - 3+ years in office management, operations, or executive support—startup or industrial environment preferred. - Ruthless organization: you keep many threads moving without dropping any, and you document as you go. - Strong written and verbal communication; comfortable dealing with vendors, candidates, and executives alike. - Proficiency with Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, and comfort picking up new tools (purchasing, HR, expense systems). - Bias to action—you see a problem and fix it before anyone asks. PREFERRED - Experience at a hardware, manufacturing, or lab-based company. - Exposure to purchasing/receiving, light bookkeeping, or HR administration. - Experience supporting founders or executives directly. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS - Competitive base salary - Equity (stock options) - Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance - Company-provided lunch daily - Visa sponsorship available if needed
