• Ensure follow-ups and action items are tracked and closed

Office & Facilities Management

• Oversee office operations, vendors, supplies, and workplace upkeep

REQUIREMENTS

• 3–6 years experience in operations, executive support, or workplace management

• Highly organized, proactive, and detail-oriented

• Excellent communicator and trusted with sensitive information

• Thrive in a fast-paced, startup environment and love wearing multiple hats

• Find-problems ethic: you don't need to be told what to do; you find things that are broken and fix them.

NICE-TO-HAVES

• Experience at a high-growth startup

• Familiarity with tools like Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, Expensify, or travel platforms

• Creative eye for swag, events, or office aesthetics
