Office Manager
At Welcome to the Jungle, the workplace is a core part of how we live our values. Our Paris headquarters, Maison W, is a 3,000 sqm building. It hosts around 70 WTTJ employees on an average day, plus 214 desks shared with sub-tenant companies.
As Office Manager, you are the day-to-day owner of how the office runs. The Workplace team sits within the People team and helps ensure that employees and residents have a smooth, welcoming experience. You will work under Larissa, Senior Workplace Operations Manager, who is responsible for the department’s overall workplace strategy, budget management, landlord relationships and compliance. You will be the person ensuring that things are followed through on the ground.
You will work in close collaboration with the front-desk team and the external providers on site. You will also work across the other departments of the company that contribute to workplace topics.
This is a role where you will grow. You'll learn a complex, multi-tenant building and a varied scope, with hands-on support from your manager.
