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.
As Our Senior Workplace Operations Associate, You Will:- 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 3-5 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're comfortable with project management - you've led office moves, buildouts, or workspace redesigns and can juggle multiple priorities simultaneously.
- You're highly organized and detail-oriented, with a knack for creating and improving processes and documentation.
- You have working knowledge of health & safety regulations (OSHA, fire codes, ADA) and building management operations.
- You communicate clearly and effectively across all levels - from building engineers to C-suite executives - and thrive in a collaborative, cross-functional environment.
- You're tech-savvy and comfortable working with workplace tools (e.g., OfficeSpace, Slack, Google Workspace, Jira/ticketing systems).
- A bachelor's degree in Facilities Management, Business Administration, Hospitality, or a related field is preferred but not required - we value demonstrated skills and experience.
