• Conduct regular site condition audits and manage the resolution of any identified deficiencies
• Plan and manage daily or weekly meal programs and on-site meeting catering to reflect company culture and professionalism; oversee the food and beverage budget, balancing high-quality perks with cost-effective purchasing strategies
• Implement eco-friendly practices such as reducing single-use plastics and managing food waste programs
• Create high-impact in-office moments and lead logistics for major events including leadership offsites, holiday parties, and team celebrations

What we're looking for

• 4+ years in workplace experience, facilities, or office operations in a fast-paced environment
• A creative thinker with a problem-solving mindset who thrives on autonomy
• Strong organizational and multi-tasking skills - you juggle priorities with calm and clarity
• An enthusiastic, magnetic presence who brings others along with their energy
• Proactive and self-driven - you don’t wait to be told what to fix or improve
• Comfortable managing vendors, budgets, and simultaneous projects
• Familiar with Google Workspace and project management tools
• Experience executing culture initiatives within a startup or high-growth company
• Demonstrated success with return-to-office engagement or office-first transitions
