Office Coordinator Douglas J Corporate | East Lansing, MI

At Douglas J, we've been shaping the beauty industry for over 60 years through our high-end Salon/Spas and Cosmetology Institutes across Michigan, Tennessee, and Nebraska. But what truly sets us apart is our people --- the teams who keep everything moving, organized, and operating at a high level behind the scenes.

We're looking for an Office Coordinator who loves variety, takes pride in ownership, and enjoys the kind of role where no two days look the same.

If you like staying busy, juggling moving pieces, and managing your own to-do list --- this might be exactly what you've been looking for.

Why This Role Is Different

::: {bind="html: Job.Requirements"} This isn't a sit-and-wait position. It's an independent, self-managed role where:

You prioritize your own workflow based on urgency and deadlines.

You anticipate needs before they arise.

You pivot when the day shifts (because it will).

You keep multiple teams organized and on track.

Every day brings something new --- from coordinating education events to managing travel, supplies, meetings, and special projects. If you get bored easily, you won't here.

What You'll Own

You'll support the daily operations of our Corporate Resource Team Office by upholding day-to-day office activities and also support our Corporate Departments with various tasks and projects. This role plays a role in helping ensure various functions and events run smoothly.

Average work week is 30--40 hours depending on business needs. Typical schedule is Monday--Friday, 8:30 AM--3:00 PM or later when needed.

You'll Thrive Here If You:

Are extremely organized and detail-oriented

Enjoy managing your own workload without constant oversight

Communicate clearly and professionally

Stay calm when juggling multiple priorities
