Job description

About the Role

The Coordinator, People & Workplace Ops is a foundational role for someone early in their career who wants broad exposure, meaningful responsibility, and the chance to learn how a growing business operates from the inside. You'll sit at the center of MEI's employee experience and help build the connective tissue that keeps people connected to one another and to MEI - all while getting direct exposure to talent acquisition, people operations, workplace operations, and executive support.

This is a highly visible, high-touch role. You'll be responsible not just for making the day-to-day run exceptionally well, but for anticipating needs, connecting dots, and finding smarter ways to work as MEI grows. It's a strong fit for someone who's equally comfortable executing the details and thinking beyond them - proactive, resourceful, and eager to build a foundation that opens doors to broader responsibilities at MEI over time.

NOTE: This is an in-person role based in our Tysons Corner office, with remote coordination supporting our Richmond and Charlottesville offices. This role will be expected to travel periodically for office and team support in VA and NYC.

Employee Experience & Talent Support

• Build connection and community across MEI by planning and executing thoughtful virtual and in-person culture, recognition and employee engagement programs

• Drive key components of the employee lifecycle, from onboarding through offboarding, identifying opportunities to make the experience more seamless, scalable, and effective
• Partner with People Ops on research, data analysis, process improvements, and compliance programming; contribute to cross-functional projects and broader business priorities as opportunities arise
• Tackle special projects and emerging needs, bringing structure to ambiguous problems and driving work through completion

Operational Leadership Across Three Offices

• Own on-the-ground office management for Tysons Corner HQ, coordinating remotely with Richmond and Charlottesville to keep all three offices running smoothly
• Oversee supplies, vendor coordination, facilities, IT/office systems support, and building management relationships; serve as primary point of contact for office-related needs
• Identify opportunities to streamline and scale office operations, improving processes and leveraging tools or automation where appropriate
• Support meeting logistics (room scheduling, AV, catering) and coordinate office events for Tysons Corner

Executive Support

• Provide day-to-day administrative support to Tysons-based C-suite leaders, including calendar management, scheduling, meeting logistics
• Bring sound judgment and discretion to every interaction as a trusted partner to senior leadership
• Help expand how the leadership team leverages this support over time as trust builds

What Will Help You Succeed

• 1-3 years of experience in a fast-paced, high-accountability, cross-functional environment (people operations, recruiting coordination, project coordination, consulting, executive support, or another cross-functional role)
• Exceptional judgement, discretion, and attention to detail - anticipates what needs attention, keeps things from falling through the cracks, and can be trusted with sensitive information
