At Good Company HQ, every journey begins with a conversation.
Our focus is not ‘the service’ or ‘the system’; it is the person sitting in front of us and the relationship we build with them. HQ has been designed as a warm, welcoming community space where older adults, people living with a dementia, carers and families can drop in, feel safe, feel seen and spend time with people who genuinely care.
We believe people age well and live the life they choose, for longer through connection, belonging and meaningful relationships.
What makes HQ different is the time we take to listen, notice, understand what matters to someone and walk alongside them as they rediscover confidence, purpose, friendships, hobbies and community in ways that feel human, personal and relational.
The HQ Concierge role is central to creating this experience every day.
Role purpose
The HQ Concierge provides a warm, welcoming and consistent presence at Good Company HQ in Crowborough.
This role is about helping people feel known, valued, listened to and connected. The HQ Concierge supports members, visitors and volunteers to feel at ease within HQ and helps create the relational culture that makes Good Company different.
The role works closely with the Member Experience Manager to support the smooth day-to-day running of concierge activity at HQ, including supporting volunteers, coordinating daily activity, running briefings and debriefings and ensuring everyone who walks through the door receives a high-quality, relational experience.
The HQ Concierge is often one of the first relationships someone builds with Good Company and therefore plays an important role in helping people feel safe, welcome and part of the community. For many members and families, this role helps shape how they experience Good Company and whether they feel known, connected and less alone.
By creating warmth, consistency and meaningful relationships, the HQ Concierge contributes to Good Company’s mission of helping people age well and live the life they choose for longer.
Good Company is in the final stages of an ambitious pilot. As a result, this role sits within an environment that is fast paced, evolving and sometimes unpredictable. Alongside delivering meaningful day-to-day experiences, the HQ Concierge will help shape, test and develop what HQ becomes.
We are looking for someone who thrives in change rather than simply tolerates it - someone who feels energised by growth, comfortable with ambiguity and excited by helping build something new while maintaining warmth, consistency and genuine human connection.
At Good Company, while organisation and coordination matter, relationships come first. This role is not about rushing people, ‘processing’ members or simply completing tasks. We are looking for someone who understands the importance of taking time, listening well, noticing what matters and building genuine human relationships.
