We are looking for a Senior Workplace Manager to join our Workplace Strategy & Operations team — which owns workplace, real estate, employee experience, and physical security globally. You will serve as our senior on-the-ground presence across our EMEA offices, owning daily operations in London and overseeing Berlin, while playing a significant role in our upcoming London office search and transition from co-working to a permanent space. You will report to the Head of Workplace and will be located onsite in London.

If you're based within a pre-determined commuting distance of one of our offices (SF, NY, London, or Berlin), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday, even if the role is listed as remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team.

• →Own daily operations across our London and Berlin co-working locations — including access control, vendor management, food programs, facilities, and general services — maintaining a consistently high standard across both sites.
• →Play a significant role in the London office search and transition: helping define space requirements, coordinating site visits, evaluating options, and supporting the build-out and move-in process in close partnership with the Head of Workplace, broader workplace team, IT/AV, Finance, and Legal.

• →Travel to Berlin on a regular basis (approximately quarterly) to maintain on-the-ground presence and ensure operational continuity.
• →Partner cross-functionally with IT, Security, Legal, Finance, and People to coordinate services and contribute to global Workplace programs, team OKRs/KPIs, and special projects.

• 6+ years of experience in workplace operations, office management, or a related field, with demonstrated experience operating autonomously in a senior or standalone capacity.
• Proven experience contributing to office search, build-out, or lease transition processes — you know how to be an effective partner on real estate workstreams.
• Experience managing multiple office locations simultaneously, including serving as the primary point of escalation across sites.
• Track record of building or owning employee experience programs, including events, cultural programming, and in-office activations.
• Experience collaborating across functions and influencing senior stakeholders across time zones.

• Have managed a multi-site or multi-country portfolio in EMEA
• Have scaled workplace operations from co-working to a leased or owned office environment
• Have contributed to physical security programs
