Job description

WHO WE ARE

We are PEAK6, a leading investment firm, using technology to find a better way of doing things. The company's first tech-based solution was developed in 1997 to optimize options trading, and over the past two decades, the same formula has been used across a range of industries, asset classes, and business stages to consistently deliver superior results. Today, PEAK6 seeks transformational opportunities to provide capital and strategic support to entrepreneurs and forward-thinking businesses. PEAK6's core brands include PEAK6 Capital Management, PEAK6 Strategic Capital, Apex Fintech Solutions, FOCUS, We Insure, Evil Geniuses, Poker Power, Zogo, and Bruce Markets.

ABOUT THIS ROLE

About the Role We're looking for a personable, polished, and detail-oriented Facilities Coordinator to be the face and heartbeat of our office. This role keeps the workplace running smoothly day-to-day - coordinating vendors, managing repairs, and making sure the space is clean, safe, and functional. Just as important: this person genuinely enjoys people, wants to know everyone in the office by name, and brings a warm, professional presence to every interaction. You'll be one of the first people employees and visitors interact with each morning, so a great attitude and strong communication skills matter as much as the operational know-how.

Key Responsibilities

• Be an early, visible presence in the office each morning - opening up the space and ensuring it's guest- and employee-ready for the day
• Serve as the go-to point of contact for facility-related requests and general office needs
• Coordinate and schedule maintenance, repairs, and inspections with vendors and building management
• Manage relationships with vendors and service providers (cleaning, pantry/catering, security, landscaping, etc.)
• Maintain inventory of office and pantry supplies; manage reordering
• Support space planning, desk assignments, and light office moves or furniture setup
• Assist with meeting room readiness, event setup/teardown, and day-to-day workplace logistics
• Track facilities-related invoices and contracts; assist with light budget tracking
• Build genuine relationships across the office - know who's who, check in regularly, and help foster a welcoming, connected culture
• Respond promptly and calmly to office issues as they arise

Qualifications

• 1-2 years of facilities, office coordination, or workplace experience preferred; candidates with EA, admin, or executive support backgrounds are also a great fit
• Prior internship experience at a well-regarded company, with a demonstrated sense of professionalism and polish
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Warm, friendly, and approachable - someone who naturally builds relationships and enjoys being part of office life
• Highly organized with the ability to juggle multiple priorities and vendors
• Comfortable being onsite full-time and starting early
• Calm, solutions-oriented approach when issues come up

OUR REWARDS

We offer a robust package of employee perks and benefits, including healthcare benefits (medical, dental and vision, EAP), competitive PTO, 401k match, parental leave, and HSA contribution match. We also provide our employees with a paid subscription to the Calm app and offer generous external learning and tuition reimbursement benefits. As a hybrid workforce, we offer our employees the ability to work remotely up to two days a week. Base pay offered may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and office location. This position also may be eligible for a discretionary annual bonus in addition to a range of health & wellness benefits, enhancing your overall compensation package. Base Salary Range $21-$26
