Обязанности
- Sei Development Foundation is seeking an experienced, proactive generalist to be a go-to operator across the business and run our physical office in NoHo. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in dynamic environments, loves solving problems independently, and wants to contribute to a fast-moving blockchain company building at the frontier of web3.
- We believe the best ideas, strongest relationships, and real sense of belonging come from time spent together. So when our team comes into our office in Noho, we want it to feel like the center of our community. It’s a beautiful space in one of New York’s best neighborhoods, where we do our best work together, host offsites and team gatherings, and celebrate wins.
- We’re looking for someone to make it feel alive, and to help the business run smoothly behind the scenes. You’ll create the experiences that make people want to walk through the door, and you’ll also step into whatever the team needs: executive support, events, people operations, finance operations, and general business operations. You’ll balance operational excellence with real hospitality, and culture and community will always be your north star.
- You’ll be part of the Operations team, but this role is yours to run. You’re our sole owner of workplace experience, with no facilities team behind you, so you’ll bring a builder’s mindset and the drive to get things done yourself. As a 5 days/week on-site role, you’ll be the steady presence in the office, welcoming people on the days they come in and making each one count.

- Office operations & vendors
- Run daily office operations: front-of-house, mail and packages, snacks and supplies, and general upkeep

- Be the first point of contact for employee requests and office issues, and resolve them yourself or find who can
- Manage facilities needs such as space planning, repairs, equipment, and safety compliance
