About the Role

As a Global Food Operations Specialist, you will support the execution and continuous improvement of the company global food program across multiple offices and regions. You’ll help coordinate daily operations, support vendor performance and governance, manage operational reporting and systems, and contribute to the development of scalable processes that enable global growth. You’ll also play a key role in leveraging AI, automation, and operational technology to improve workflows, reporting, and program effectiveness.

We’re looking for people who are highly organized, systems-minded, collaborative, and excited to solve operational challenges in a fast-paced environment. The ideal candidate combines strong operational execution with a hospitality mindset and a passion for using technology and automation to improve how work gets done.

• Coordinate operational launches and transitions, including cafés, meal delivery programs, new office openings, and food program integrations associated with acquisitions.

• Track operational follow-ups, risks, escalations, and action items while maintaining clear communication and accountability across stakeholders.

• Support vendor performance management through KPI tracking, reporting validation, operational reviews, and follow-through on agreed action plans.

• Partner with Workplace Data & Technology teams to improve reporting, dashboards, operational systems, and AI-enabled workflows that increase efficiency and scalability.

• Maintain operational documentation, SOPs, trackers, and governance processes that support consistent global program execution.

• Help gather and analyze employee feedback, support food program communications, and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives that enhance the employee experience.

• Identify operational gaps, process inefficiencies, and opportunities for automation or standardization, and help implement scalable solutions.

You might thrive in this role if you:

• Have experience supporting operations, hospitality, workplace experience, program coordination, vendor management, or related functions in a fast-paced environment.

• Are highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities simultaneously while maintaining strong follow-through.

• Have experience working with operational reporting, dashboards, KPIs, spreadsheets, or business systems to drive decision-making and accountability.

• Are excited about AI, automation, and technology-enabled operations, and enjoy identifying opportunities to improve workflows and processes.

• Bring a hospitality-first mindset and care deeply about delivering a high-quality employee experience.
