About the role

We're hiring a Senior Workplace Project Manager to lead the planning, design, and delivery of our new NYC and Cambridge, MA offices.

• Manage the full lifecycle of the NYC and Cambridge office build-outs, from initial scoping through construction administration and move-in, targeting summer 2027
• Develop and own project budgets, schedules, and scope documents for both sites
• Procure and actively manage external vendors including architects, general contractors, furniture vendors, AV/IT consultants, and specialty subcontractors
• Serve as Suno's owner's representative throughout design and construction, coordinating reviews and approvals with Finance, IT, Legal, and People
• Support space planning and occupancy analysis to inform decisions on both sites
• Lead due diligence on both spaces; support lease work letter review and TI allowance negotiation in coordination with Legal
• Manage permitting, code compliance, and landlord coordination for NYC and Cambridge
• Maintain project documentation, status reporting, and executive updates throughout both projects
• Build scalable process templates for how Suno manages workplace development going forward

Requirements

• Approximately 5-8 years of experience managing office build-outs or tenant improvement projects, ideally at a tech company or in a client-side PM role
• Solid working knowledge of the full construction lifecycle: design development, construction documents, permitting, bidding, construction administration, and closeout
• Hands-on experience with MEP systems, FF&E, AV/IT integration, and commercial interiors
• Strong budget management skills; comfortable with detailed cost tracking and change order review
• Ability to manage two concurrent projects across different sites without losing detail or momentum
• Comfortable reading and interpreting architectural and engineering drawings
• Experience navigating lease documents and work letters (with Legal support)
• Clear, direct communicator with strong stakeholder management skills across all levels
• Self-directed and structured—this is a greenfield engagement that requires someone who can create process from scratch

Nice to have

• Familiarity with the NYC commercial real estate market and DOB permitting process
• Familiarity with Cambridge/MA building codes and permitting
• Experience working with flexible or serviced office providers alongside traditional TI projects
• Background in interior design or architecture
• PMP, LEED, or similar certification
