Workplace Program & Resource Manager

• We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions.

The Role

The Workplace Program Manager is responsible for leading and scaling the programs that span Legora's Workplace organization — the initiatives that help employees move faster, have a better day-to-day experience, and keep our offices running within budget as we grow into new markets. This role operates across functions and geographies, owning programs end-to-end while building the structure, processes, and tools that let the Workplace team operate consistently and at scale without slowing down.

This is a cross-functional role that requires strong program management fundamentals, independent judgment, and the ability to influence stakeholders without direct authority. You'll work closely with the Workplace team — Managers, Coordinators, and Design/Build — to turn their vision for what a great office experience looks like into programs that are actually launched, adopted, and improving over time. The ideal candidate is comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-growing environments, skilled at building clarity and alignment, and motivated by improving how the Workplace team delivers for employees globally.

If you love the moment a good idea becomes a program employees actually notice and love, this is your role.

What You'll Do

• Own and manage a portfolio of cross-functional Workplace programs with global scope, driving delivery from scoping through launch, ongoing operation, and continuous improvement

• Collaborate deeply with Regional Workplace Managers and Workplace Managers to design programs, events and experiences that make employees' day-to-day faster and better — from travel to winter parties and physical security

• Develop and maintain program-level processes, playbooks, and operating standards that let the Workplace team deliver consistently across regions and offices

• Lead cross-functional workstreams in partnership with Real Estate, Finance, IT, and Security, ensuring Workplace priorities are clearly represented, aligned, and delivered

• Identify gaps in current programs and proactively design and launch solutions, often without an established playbook

• Build and scale tooling, workflows, and internal resources that improve team effectiveness and the consistency of the employee-facing experience

• Own the budget for programs under your management — building the business case, tracking spend against plan, and flagging drift before it becomes a problem

• Manage vendor relationships and provide direction where relevant to program delivery, ensuring alignment to Legora's standards

• Help monitor and control budget across the broader Workplace portfolio, and step in to unblock global procurement and vendor issues as they come up

• Serve as a thought partner to Workplace leadership on priorities, team capacity, and program strategy

• Communicate clearly across all levels of the organization, translating complex operational topics into guidance employees actually understand

Who You Are

• You get energy from watching an idea become something employees actually use and love

• You'd rather build the plan yourself than wait for someone to hand you a template

• You partner well — you make the Workplace team's vision better, not just execute it

• You move fast without losing sight of the budget or the details that make a program actually work

• You're motivated by impact on real people's day-to-day experience, not just ticking off a delivery date

What We're Looking For

• 7+ years designing, launching, or running employee-facing programs — workplace, people ops, program management, or a related field

• A track record of taking a program from idea to launch, including owning the budget

• Experience improving or relaunching an existing program based on data or feedback, not just building new ones

• Comfort partnering across Real Estate, Finance, IT, and Security without needing a governance structure to get things moving

• Global or multi-office experience is a plus, but not required
