About the Role

As our Workplace Experience Manager, you will lead and oversee our workplace strategy and operations across our San Francisco headquarters and co-working spaces in Boston, Denver, and New York. Reporting to the Head of People, you'll create exceptional environments where our team can thrive and do their best work.

You understand that today's workplaces need fresh thinking, and you're excited to reimagine what's possible. Your initial focus will be transforming our San Francisco office and orchestrating our upcoming move. You love seeing how people interact with spaces and get energized by creating environments that foster collaboration and embody our culture.

This role combines strategic vision with thoughtful execution during our growth stage. You will thrive in this role if you're organized yet adaptable, blending big-picture thinking with attention to the details that make workplaces special. The expectation is that this role is more strategic than tactical, but we’re at a company size and stage where there are operational things you will need to own. This role will be based out of our San Francisco office (at 88 Kearny), with an in-office expectation of 5 days a week.

What you'll do:

Workplace Strategy

• Design and test innovative workplace concepts that bring our culture to life through physical spaces
• Anticipate our future space needs as we grow and evolve
• Lead our exciting San Francisco office redesign and relocation

Operations Management

• Manage workplace budget and expenses, forecasting expenditures and identifying cost-saving opportunities
• Maintain office cleanliness standards, outsourcing tasks where appropriate (ability to lift up to 50 pounds required)
• Collaborate with IT, Finance, and People Ops on cross-functional initiatives and manage relationships with vendors to keep workplaces running smoothly

Employee Experience

• Design and execute workplace programs and initiatives that enhance the employee experience and foster connection
• Support the planning and execution of company and team events, from small celebrations to large offsite gatherings
• Collect and analyze employee feedback to continuously improve workplace experience

You are ideal for this role if you have:

• 5+ years of experience in workplace management or related field, with 1+ years leading workplace initiatives in a high-growth tech environment
• Strong analytical skills with experience using data
• Creative mindset for developing innovative approaches, particularly with workplace design
• Excellent project management skills with the ability to balance multiple priorities and lead cross-functional initiatives
• Experience managing vendor relationships, contracts, and operational budgets with strong financial acumen
• Outstanding interpersonal and communication skills with a hospitality-oriented approach to creating inspiring workplaces
• Experience with workplace management systems and collaboration tools

Compensation:

Salary Range: $85,000-$115,000

Our compensation package includes equity and benefits in addition to salary.

Please note that the range listed is for someone based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Where you land in the range will be based on your experience and interview performance to ensure the offer fairly reflects your qualifications and the impact you’ll have at Semgrep.

What we offer

Our goal is to competitively and fairly compensate every Semgrep employee with a system that equally rewards those who are vocal and those who are less comfortable making demands during the final steps of the hiring process. To that end, we generate internal compensation bands that are used when discussing and negotiating salaries. We update these based on market data to make sure they’re above the average for comparable roles.

We also invest in our employees’ well-being and long term success with comprehensive health plans, generous vacation time, 401k, learning stipends, and more. Our benefits are for everyone, so that you’re taken care of, and we work with individuals to make sure they have what they need, whether that’s quiet work space, adjusted hours, or something else.

Who we are

We have people from France and the Philippines, physics and philosophy, formal methods research and full fledged corporations. We’re new parents and new grads, aspiring authors and aspiring Americans, dog lovers and dogfooders. We get together often to bike, bake, and meet up in parks. In our interactions, we believe respect and honesty go hand in hand, and prioritize both.

Semgrep is an equal-opportunity employer seeking a diverse range of backgrounds. We value who you are — including your cultural heritage, your socioeconomic status, your age, your race, your gender, your sexual orientation, your disabilities. We value what’s vitally important to you — your family, your religion, your politics. We value what you love in this world — your music, your weekend pursuits. We believe in welcoming varied professional backgrounds, educations, and interests. If you’re exceptional in your role, believe in Semgrep’s mission, and treat Semgrep’s values as your own, you belong here.
