Habbox General Management manages the overall workings of Habbox on a daily basis. There are between 3 and 5 (Assistant) General Managers at all times, all doing different roles, and supporting each section of Habbox.
The General Management team fall under Jin and Sierk, the owners of Habbox, but due to the owners' lessening activity, often have the final say about what happens on Habbox. Directly under them are the Department Managers, who report to each AGM throughout the month - often daily, so they are all kept in the loop with the goings-on at Habbox.
(Assistant) General Manager positions
General Manager
The General Management Team, and Habbox as a whole, is led by the General Manager, currently xxMATTGxx. The General Manager's job is to oversee everything that happens, and make the final decision on many of the decisions which need to be made daily for the general running of Habbox.
The General Manager is in regular contact with Habbox's owners, particularly Jin, and passes on information about what's going on at Habbox.
They also look after the Forum, as it is arguably the largest and most important department at Habbox.
Assistant General Manager (Staff)
The AGM (Staff), currently Wispur is responsible for managing all of Habbox's Staff, across all of the departments. Wispur monitors hirings, firings, complaints, warnings and just about everything else that staff might encounter on a day-to-day basis. He also now manages the Staff of the Month reward system.
As part of the role, the AGM (Staff) is expected to do permissions for staff; that is to give new trialists the access to the right forums and accounts on other sites including the HabboxLive panel and the main Habbox site. Department Managers report to Wispur about their staff on a regular basis.
Assistant General Manager (Community)
The AGM (Community) manages, as evident from the job title, the community. Shonly, the current Community AGM, looks after all the Community Departments - HabboxLive, Competitions, Events and Help Desk. She deals with the running of them - including ideas and suggestions in departmental monthly reports, and finds out how each of them is doing. The managers will feedback to the Community AGM throughout the month, often daily, about events and suggestions.
The Community AGM is also in charge of running most of the big events hosted by Habbox, including the Habbox Summer Spectacular, Easter Eggstravaganza etc.
Assistant General Manager (Content)
The AGM (Content) has the opposite role to the Community AGM. lawrawrrr, the current Content AGM, manages all the department which are Content based. These include Graphics, Content, News andRare Values
The Content AGM is also responsible for writing ideas, suggestions and reports for the Department Managers to direct their department in the right way. They also manage the Site Coders and oversee new Habbox developments, including Version Seven.
Redundant Assistant General Manager Positions
From the founding of Habbox to November 2006, the fansite was run by "Site Managers". These (Assistant) Site Managers often held general roles and though in practice they had responsibilities, official titles designating responsibility did not emerge until May 2005 when the four then-Assistant Site Managers (JackHB, 8Freak8, bi!!y, and doraemonkiller) were renamed to Forum, Webpage Design,HabboxTV, and Rare Values, respectively. All (Assistant) Site Manager positions, including the aforementioned three, Assistant Site Manager (News), and Assistant Site Manager (Radio), were discontinued after having titles switched to (Assistant) General Manager in November 2006.
In the past there have also been other Assistant General Manager roles, including the "general" position without an area of focus as well as Assistant General Manager (International), (Operations), (Forum), and (Technical) each of which are no longer positions at Habbox. The role of Assistant General Manager (Technical) was replaced by a small team of Habbox Site Coders and a Technical Manager. Previously there were multiple
Between 2011 and 2013, the role of Content AGM was made redundant - moving to a (Development) Role for 2011 until early 2012. However the role was brought back in 2013 due to the lack of support in the Content departments.
