Senior Workplace Manager, Colocation & Spark

Crusoe•Denver, CO

6d•$140,000 - $170,000•Remote

About The Position

Crusoe is looking for a Senior Workplace Manager to own the site and employee experience across their growing network of Spark and colocation data center sites. This role is responsible for building the standards, systems, and vendor relationships necessary to keep sites running and employees supported, even without a coordinator on the ground. The position partners closely with the broader workplace team, Construction, Facilities, Operations, and Security. This is a full-time, remote role requiring candidates to reside near their offices in Dallas, TX or Denver, CO. It also involves regular travel (up to 50%, including international) for site mobilizations and quality control visits.

Requirements

7+ years of experience in workplace, facilities, or site operations, spanning multiple locations rather than a single office, and ideally at a fast-growing company.
Experience building a program, standard, or playbook without an established precedent to follow.
Proven experience managing budgets, vendor contracts, and landlord or building-management relationships.
Experience managing and developing direct reports, with a focus on accountability and service, including comfort managing a team spread across multiple countries and time zones.
Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, comfortable partnering across People, Construction, Facilities, Operations, IT, and Security.
Comfortable substituting systems and remote monitoring for daily physical presence, with sound judgment on when a problem needs a site visit.
Highly organized and comfortable operating independently, solving problems, and building structure in an environment without established playbooks.
A hands-on operator who takes ownership and is motivated by building something from the ground up.
Willing and able to travel regularly for mobilizations and site visits.

Nice To Haves

Experience in data center environments
Familiarity with remote-monitoring or ticketing systems for facilities and workplace operations
Experience scaling a function during a period of fast geographic growth

Responsibilities

Lead the buildout of the Colocation & Spark workplace program, partnering on standards, service levels, and mobilization playbooks so each new site opens ready and on a repeatable model.
Own day-to-day workplace operations across the portfolio, establishing the systems, reporting, and remote-monitoring cadence that keep sites functional and issues visible without a coordinator physically on-site.
Manage vendor and, for colocation sites, landlord relationships, serving as the primary point of contact for facilities, maintenance, service issues, and contract performance, with clear escalation paths for emergencies.
Own the workplace budget across the portfolio, including forecasting, vendor spend, and cost optimization that doesn't compromise the employee experience.
Deliver a strong site and employee experience for dispersed teams at each location, including planning your own travel around mobilizations, executive visits, and periodic quality checks.
Bring Crusoe's broader People and Workplace strategy to a distributed footprint, adapting programs and communications built for large single offices to remote teams.
Ensure a hospitality-caliber visitor experience at every site: orchestrate through site vendors, advance planning, and clear on-the-ground points of contact.
Own food, beverage, and office amenities programs across the portfolio, managing snack and catering vendors remotely and building events and moments of connection for distributed teams.
Hire, manage, and develop the Colocation & Spark Workplace Coordinator team as it grows both domestically and internationally, setting priorities and a consistent standard of service across sites.
Travel to sites to support executive, VIP, and prospective client visits, coordinating logistics and on-the-ground details in advance so tours run smoothly and reflect well on Crusoe.
