This role is central to delivering seamless, high-quality workplace experience within a dynamic and collaborative corporate environment.

This position is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of event execution and office management, someone who enjoys being hands-on while bringing structure, creativity, and attention to detail to their work. You have a natural ability to anticipate needs, keep things running smoothly, and create environments where people feel supported and engaged.

Working as part of the facilities and workplace team, you will help oversee daily office operations while leading the coordination and execution of a wide range of company events throughout the year - from small team gatherings to large-scale initiatives, including two annual Company Weeks and weekly hybrid All Hands meetings featuring a catered company breakfast.

You’ll play a critical role in ensuring our office runs smoothly while continuously elevating how employees and visitors experience the space. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role where consistency, ownership, and follow-through truly matter.

• Manage event and workplace-related administrative processes, including budgeting, invoice tracking, vendor coordination, and expense reconciliation
• Help create a welcoming, high-functioning environment for employees and visitors
• Maintain and elevate the look, feel, and flow of shared spaces (cleanliness, organization, energy)
• Identify and implement small improvements that enhance the day-to-day workplace experience

Corporate Administrative Support

• Provide general administrative support across Facilities, Events, and broader People Operations as needed
• Support execution of internal communications (posting updates, maintaining digital screens, coordinating messaging across teams)
• Help ensure key information is shared clearly, consistently, and in a timely manner across office and remote teams
• Maintain and reinforce human connection touchpoints through thoughtful, well-executed communication and coordination
• Assist with light project coordination and follow-through to keep initiatives moving forward

• Demonstrated ability to plan and execute projects end-to-end—able to manage timelines, coordinate details, and reliably follow through on commitments
• Highly organized and proactive, with a track record of managing multiple priorities, shifting needs, and small details without losing momentum, while maintaining a pleasant attitude.
• Comfortable working in a hands-on, in-office role that may involve physical setup, movement throughout the space, and real-time problem solving
