About the Opportunity:

Our client is a fast-growing, highly innovative aerospace company operating in a secure, high-traffic environment with frequent visits from government partners and industry stakeholders. The front desk serves as a critical first point of contact and plays a key role in maintaining a professional, organized, and secure workplace.

We are seeking a polished, experienced Front Desk Receptionist who thrives in a high-visibility role. This individual will be the face of the organization, managing a steady flow of visitors while partnering closely with security and internal teams to ensure a seamless and professional experience. This is a two-receptionist model, working alongside an experienced team member who is transitioning into a broader facilities/security-focused role. The position offers stability and long-term consistency for someone who genuinely enjoys front desk operations and wants to build a career in this function.

This role is best suited for someone who enjoys being a receptionist long-term and takes pride in hospitality and organization.

• Comfortable interacting with executives, external partners, and government visitors

• Highly reliable with strong attention to detail and organizational skills

• Ability to work an early schedule (starting at 7:30 AM) consistently

• Experience in aerospace or similar industries is a plus, but not required

What We’re Looking For:

• Someone who enjoys front desk work and wants to stay in this type of role long-term

• A professional, welcoming presence with strong emotional intelligence

• A dependable “early bird” who can support morning visitor flow

• A team player who can collaborate closely with security, operations, and administrative staff
