About the Role The Culture & Internal Communications team moves fast across a lot of different fronts at once. We're hiring an Operations Associate to run the calendars and machines that keep every workstream on this team moving. The role breaks down into three parts: running the logistics behind our communications moments - town halls, Q&As, and the Distinguished Speaker Series; keeping our culture systems and tools running (think metrics refreshes and the machines behind them); and providing calendar and administrative support for Bridgewater's Head of Culture, roughly 20-30% of the role.
Because this team's work touches the entire company, this role offers real visibility into how culture and communications initiatives actually run day to day - and for someone who grows an interest in the content itself, there's room to take on more over time.
Responsibilities - Own the logistics of our company moments end to end - town halls, Q&As, the Distinguished Speaker Series - building and improving the playbooks and runbooks behind them so they get better and more repeatable over time
- Run operations across our culture-related workstreams, including the recurring processes behind our culture tools and systems, like metrics refreshes
- Support the Head of Culture & Internal Communications with her calendar and weekly priorities, serving as a point of contact for incoming requests
- Take on additional project work as capacity and interest allow
Minimum Qualifications - Integrity, precision, and care in handling sensitive information
- Excellent organizational skills and an ability to juggle multiple responsibilities/tasks/priorities with minimal error
- 2-4 years of experience in operations, program coordination, or administrative capacity, ideally including some exposure to supporting senior stakeholders
- An eye for spotting inefficiencies, and a track record of building processes - playbooks, runbooks, trackers - that fix them and hold up over time
- Effective written and oral communication skills with strong attention to detail
- Ability to anticipate and independently avoid or solve problems
- Agility; capable of adapting to unexpected changes and rapidly evolving situations; willingness to stay connected
- Genuine curiosity about AI tools and how to use them - comfort experimenting with new technology to work more efficiently.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Outlook and Word. Familiarity with Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint
