You’ll also partner with our Workplace team to make the NYC office feel ready and welcoming, and to help bring the events that pull everyone together to life.

• Support offboarding, benefits enrollment windows and other lifecycle moments with care and accuracy.

Partner with our People team

• Help turn what we hear into People programs, from engagement initiatives and wellness offerings to culture-building moments.
• Help spot where our people processes could be smoother and suggest improvements.

Support the NYC office

• Pitch in on day-to-day office needs, like restocking, flagging repairs and greeting guests, and looping in Workplace for anything bigger
• Help coordinate in-office moments, like team lunches, events and new hire desk setups.
• Bring fresh ideas that make the space work better and feel more like us.
