Your Mission – Create an exceptional workplace experience in New York 💪
As our Office Manager in the U.S., you’ll play a central role in making our New York office a welcoming, well-functioning, and vibrant place to work. You’ll manage all things related to office life, team events, and onboarding — while also supporting Yves, our CEO & Co-founder, with select administrative and logistical tasks.
If you thrive on autonomy, have a knack for creating structure, and love bringing people together, this role is for you!
What you’ll do
Office & Admin Management
Be the go-to person for anything office-related in New York: space, supplies, snacks, maintenance, comfort, and daily well-being.
Manage relationships with all office vendors and service providers (cleaning, deliveries, snacks, utilities, security, etc.): pay suppliers, review invoices, and reconcile receipts.
Monitor office budgets and expenses, and track receipts or invoices when needed.
People Experience & Onboarding
Welcome all new teammates & prepare their welcome kits, badges, computers, and any role-specific tools before their arrival.
Coordinate first-day onboarding with the HR team: organise a breakfast & first lunch, for example.
Organize offboarding logistics when team members leave, taking the lead of our platform (Justworks).
Own the monthly payroll process for the US team: review timesheets, bonuses, and ensure data accuracy in collaboration with Justworks and the finance team.
Manage employee benefits administration, including healthcare, insurance, and any other perks or coverage programs, ensuring timely enrollment, changes, and renewals.
Team Events & Culture
Plan and execute local team events: afterworks, communal lunches, team buildings, holiday parties, and more, ensuring everyone feels included and connected.
Support the organization of company-wide events (e.g. annual seminar), including travel logistics if needed.
Financial & Administrative Operations
Prepare and deliver a monthly financial report for the NY office (expenses, budgets, forecasts).
Propose and manage cash optimization strategies, including short-term treasury placements and liquidity tracking.
Collaborate with our external accountant to ensure timely tax filings, payroll declarations, and proper record-keeping.
Maintain relationships with banking partners and ensure smooth account operations.
Support bookkeeping and documentation for audit and compliance needs.
Executive Assistant Support to the CEO
Coordinate travel arrangements, event participation, and other logistics linked to the CEO.
Manage a wide range of delegated administrative and financial tasks with high attention to detail and timely execution.
Ensure the CEO remains focused on strategic priorities.
Proactively manage the CEO’s calendar, optimizing for focus, productivity, and alignment with business priorities.
Act as the main point of contact for external accountants, legal advisors, and financial partners regarding filings, reporting, and compliance.
Support the organization and oversight of executive-level investment activity and documentation, in close coordination with relevant advisors.
Assist with the preparation and submission of corporate and administrative declarations.
