Client Experience & Showroom Manager

Client Experience & Showroom Manager | Aksarben Village

AOI is opening a new satellite showroom in the heart of Omaha’s design community in Aksarben Village and we’re looking for the person who will bring it to life.

This role is for someone who knows the industry, understands how relationships are built, and thrives in environments where presence, polish, and judgment matter.

As our Client Experience & Showroom Manager, you’ll serve as the first impression of AOI — hosting clients, collaborators, and industry partners in a space designed to inspire conversation and connection.

This is not a reception role.

This is not a pure hospitality role.

This is a client-facing, relationship-driven position with room to grow.

Why AOI

At AOI, client experience isn’t a buzzword  it’s how business gets done. Every interaction is an opportunity to strengthen trust, demonstrate value, and create momentum.

If you’re energized by thoughtful hosting, meaningful relationships, and the chance to help shape a growing role, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Do

• Own the experience of AOI’s Aksarben showroom, ensuring it’s always welcoming, intentional, and client-ready.


• Operate with strong judgment and discretion in a highly visible, client-facing environment.


• Host clients and industry partners with confidence and professionalism.


• Build familiarity and rapport within the local design and A/E/C community.


• Support Business Development by facilitating warm introductions and identifying opportunity.


• Plan and execute events that reflect AOI’s standard of excellence.


• Collaborate with Marketing to ensure the showroom aligns with brand and strategy.


• Help shape how this role  and the showroom  evolve over time.

How This Role Shows Up Day to Day

On a typical week, you will be thinking ahead reviewing who is coming into the showroom, why they’re visiting, and how to tailor the experience to them. You’ll ensure the space is always polished and on brand, coordinate visit details, host guests with confidence, and build relationships with designers, neighbors, and partners in the Aksarben community. You’ll work closely with Marketing and Business Development to align our brand, events, and opportunities, and you’ll use sound judgment to represent AOI independently in a highly visible setting.

What We’re Looking For

• You’ve worked in or alongside the A/E/C, contract furniture, or design industry.


• You’re comfortable engaging architects, designers, and decision-makers.


• You notice details others miss and take pride in getting them right.


• You balance warmth with professionalism.


• You’re excited by the idea of building something  not just maintaining it.

What Will Make You Successful Here

• You’re proactive by nature and comfortable anticipating needs.


• Comfort owning a space and making real-time decisions independently, without constant oversight.


• The ability to engage decision-makers with polish, confidence, and authenticity.


• Strong attention to detail paired with strategic thinking.


• Takes pride in creating experiences where no detail is overlooked.


• An understanding of how thoughtful experiences support business development.


• Flexibility to support evening events and occasional weekends.

Company Culture 

A culture built on people and purpose. AOI is a family-focused company that believes in kindness, integrity, and celebrating one another’s success. You'll find supportive teammates, approachable leaders, and a place where your work and wellbeing truly matter.
