Studio Operations Manager

(Creative Legion) is a place for creatives, makers, artists, and entrepreneurs to create, collaborate, and share. We are a private members club, event venue, and seasonal art gallery with amenities such as a café, podcast room, stage, breakout rooms, and ample outdoor space. We are dedicated to celebrating the arts and supporting a vibrant creative ecosystem. We host exhibitions, events, and programming for artists, entrepreneurs, and makers — and we’re growing quickly.

We’re hiring a Studio Operations Manager — a junior professional with strong natural leadership instincts, excellent intuition, and a desire to grow into a managerial role. You will take ownership of the day-to-day operations of the space, ensuring the studio, gallery, and member experience run smoothly so the COO can focus on high-level priorities.

This role is ideal for someone who is hands-on, proactive, people-centered, and excited by both the creativity and hospitality of running a community-based studio.

• Supporting or overseeing member events and community initiatives
• Managing studio checklists, SOPs, and internal standards
• Acting as the on-site lead during some evenings or weekends

• Junior-level candidate with leadership instincts — you naturally step up and take ownership

• Detail-oriented — you care deeply about presentation, order, and guest experience
• Reliable and flexible — you can adjust your schedule as needed for member and studio needs
• Warm and professional — you make people feel welcome and supported
• Clear communicator — you keep leadership informed and ensure nothing falls through the cracks
• Adaptable — you thrive in environments where no two days are the same
• Tech-comfortable — Google Suite, Canva, and basic social media; CRM experience is a plus
• Eager to learn — you want mentorship, responsibility, and a path toward management

• Full-time (four–five days/week)
• $50,000–$58,000/year depending on experience
• Growth Path: Studio Manager
