About The Role

We're looking for a Senior Workplace Operations Associate to serve as the operational backbone of our physical workspaces and workplace experience. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and is passionate about creating seamless, best-in-class office experiences that enable our teams to do their best work.

Reporting to the Associate Director, Global Workplace, you'll own day-to-day facilities management, drive process improvements, and partner cross-functionally with teams across the organization. You'll be the go-to expert for all things related to our office environments from space planning and vendor management to health & safety compliance and workplace events support.

This is a hybrid role based in our NYC headquarters, with occasional travel to other US office hubs (Austin, Miami, Cupertino) as needed.

This role operates on a 4:1 hybrid schedule (4 days in office, 1 from home). Due to the nature of this role, some weeks will require 5 days on-site.

• Facilities Management: Oversee the daily operations of our NYC headquarters and hub offices to ensure all workspaces are safe, functional, well-maintained, and reflect YipitData's culture and standards.
• Vendor & Budget Management: Source, negotiate, and manage relationships with facilities vendors and service providers (cleaning, maintenance, catering, supplies); track spend against budget and identify cost-saving opportunities.
• Space Planning & Optimization: Partner with leadership to plan and execute office layouts, seating arrangements, and workspace reconfigurations that support team growth, collaboration, and hybrid work models.
• Workplace Experience: Champion initiatives that enhance the employee workplace experience from office amenities and food programs to in-office events and community-building efforts.
• Health, Safety & Compliance: 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.
• Project Management: Lead workplace projects end-to-end, including office buildouts, renovations, moves, and technology upgrades managing timelines, budgets, and stakeholder communications.
• Operational Process Improvement: 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.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with People Ops, IT, and Finance teams to support onboarding logistics, equipment provisioning, office access management, and employee engagement programming.
• Data & Reporting: Track workplace KPIs (e.g., space utilization, ticket resolution times, vendor SLAs, employee satisfaction scores) and present insights and recommendations to leadership.

You Are Likely To Succeed If:

• You have 35 years of experience in workplace operations, facilities management, office management, or a related field ideally in a high-growth tech or professional services environment.
• You are a proactive problem-solver who anticipates needs before they arise and takes ownership of issues from identification through resolution.
• You have hands-on experience with vendor management, including contract negotiation, performance monitoring, and relationship building.

• You communicate clearly and effectively across all levels from building engineers to C-suite executives and thrive in a collaborative, cross-functional environment.
