- Partner with leadership to plan and execute office layouts, seating arrangements, and workspace reconfigurations that support team growth, collaboration, and hybrid work models.
- Champion initiatives that enhance the employee workplace experience — from office amenities and food programs to in-office events and community-building efforts.
- Ensure compliance with local building codes, OSHA regulations, fire safety protocols, and ADA accessibility standards; maintain emergency preparedness plans and serve as a point of contact for building management.
- Lead workplace projects end-to-end, including office buildouts, renovations, moves, and technology upgrades — managing timelines, budgets, and stakeholder communications.
- Develop and refine SOPs for workplace operations; identify bottlenecks, implement automation, and leverage technology (e.g., visitor management systems, room booking tools, ticketing platforms) to increase efficiency.
- Partner closely with People Ops, IT, and Finance teams to support onboarding logistics, equipment provisioning, office access management, and employee engagement programming.
- Track workplace KPIs (e.g., space utilization, ticket resolution times, vendor SLAs, employee satisfaction scores) and present insights and recommendations to leadership.
Requirements
