About The Position

At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next. The Opportunity: As part of the Global Enterprise Operations (EO) team, we are seeking a Workplace Manager to lead the team for one of our corporate offices in Washington DC. As a Workplace Manager, you are the Informed Captain of your site. You don't just manage a building; you are accountable for overall Workplace outcomes and the end-to-end employee experience. You operate as a strategic peer to local business leaders. You are the "Center of the Hub," integrating functional expertise from Workplace Leadership and the wider Enterprise Operations (EO) ecosystem into a seamless workplace experience. Your success is measured by the health of your site's sentiment, the strength of your stakeholder relationships, and your ability to govern world-class vendor performance. This role exists to replace traditional hands-on building oversight with an elevated business leader who integrates the full operational ecosystem. This role ensures local workspace environments dynamically adapt to evolving business strategies, protect financial run-rates, and keep employee sentiment consistently high.

Requirements

5-7 years of workplace experience, with an emphasis on corporate hospitality, hotel management, and event execution.
Strong focus on senior stakeholder engagement and ability to build relationships at all levels.
Comfortable collaborating with diverse team members, including architects, building engineers, property management, project managers, and senior leadership.
High tolerance for change, and the capacity to problem-solve and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Demonstrated experience in crisis management, emergency preparedness, and 24/7 workplace incident response.
Passionate about creating a great place for employees & visitors.
Excellent communication and organizational leadership skills.
Positive team-oriented, hands-on, adaptive, and client-focused attitude.
Proficiency in GSuite (Docs, Sheets, Calendar, Slides), Slack, Zendesk (or other ticketing system), visitor management systems, space utilization tools, and security/badge access platforms.
Respect, understanding, and enthusiasm for the Netflix Culture.

Nice To Haves

You are a business leader first and a workplace expert second. You can pivot from a financial budget review to a high-stakes business discussion with a VP.
Your commitment to excellence begins with a focus on consistently delivering the fundamentals at the highest standard.
You thrive as an Informed Captain. You use the 70% Global Standard as a foundation and own your 30% Local Nuance, acting decisively on local problems while proactively surfacing decisions that affect other markets.

Responsibilities

Own the site's operational budget and long-term roadmap. You make the high-level trade-offs between "Foundations of Excellence" (basics) and "Differentiators" (culture-enhancing activations).
Instead of managing tasks, you govern outcomes. You hold our strategic vendor partners accountable to ambitious SLAs, ensuring they operate with proactivity and Netflix-quality standards.
Lead the integrated workplace approach by effectively partnering with EO functional partners to ensure a unified one team front to the business and employees. You will collaborate and align with cross-functional partners such as AV, Ntech Ops, Corporate Events, Internal Comms, Security Operations, and Systems to ensure we constantly provide a frictionless, safe, and secure workplace and respond to incidents that will occur 24/7.
