• We are hiring a Workplace Services Leader to establish and lead the workplace services function at Hadrian. This role is responsible for setting strategy, building and managing the team, and overseeing the programs and vendors that keep our workplaces running smoothly.
• This is a leadership role for someone who can operate at the systems level, move fast, and create structure while the company is scaling aggressively.
• The primary expectation is to build the team quickly and transition execution to coordinators, specialists, and facilities staff as soon as possible.

• The Workplace Services Leader will partner closely with IT, Security, and EHS on access requirements, incident response coordination, and site readiness.
• The role will ensure physical security programs scale appropriately as new locations open and headcount grows.
• The Workplace Services Leader will lead while executing temporarily, stepping in as needed to support execution while the team is being built, without becoming the long term executor.
• The role will focus personal effort on unblocking progress, setting direction, and enabling others to execute effectively.
• The Workplace Services Leader will transition hands on work to team members quickly as roles are hired and onboarded.
• The role will own vendor strategy, selection, contracts, and performance management for workplace services and physical security.
• The Workplace Services Leader will own the workplace services budget and forecasting as the company expands.

🎯 Requirements

• Significant proven experience in workplace services, facilities management, office operations, physical security, or related functions with increasing leadership scope.
