Role

• Own the office fit-out end to end, from layout design and space planning to decoration, ensuring the workspace reflects Voodoo's identity

• Build and run the local vendor ecosystem from scratch - source, qualify, and contract fit-out companies, cleaning services, and maintenance providers

• Set up a world-class snacking and food experience by sourcing local Turkish suppliers for coffee, tea, food, and snacks aligned with Voodoo's culture and expectations

• Design a workspace that brings people together, with desk zones, meeting rooms, and social spaces crafted to fuel collaboration, productivity, and a genuine sense of team connection, creating experiences compelling enough to make the office the place people actually want to be.

• Report to the Paris Workplace Manager, with a dotted-line to the Local GM, and keep all stakeholders up to date on setup milestones, budget spend, and vendor status using Google Suite.

• Run regular employee satisfaction surveys, summarise the results, and build time-bound action plans from the feedback. Review plans with the Manager, implement them, and track their impact, keeping disruption to employees as low as possible.

• Ensure rigorous and timely budget tracking and deliver structured monthly reports, flagging risks proactively

• Manage all vendor relationships and supply chains, renegotiating or replacing suppliers when needed

• Lead small office events and team-building activities that reinforce Voodoo's culture and bring the Istanbul team together depending on goal set up with management

• Scale workplace operations as headcount grows from 15 to 30+ people, anticipating needs and adapting processes accordingly

Profile

• 3–6 years of experience in Workplace, Office Management, Facilities, or a related role, ideally in a startup, scale-up, or high-growth tech environment

• Fluent in both English and Turkish (written and spoken), with the ability to communicate clearly whether briefing Paris or negotiating with local suppliers

• Proficient in Google Suite (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, Notion is a plus)

• Proven local vendor network in Istanbul across fit-out contractors, cleaning companies, and snacking suppliers

• Strong budget management and reporting skills, comfortable owning a P&L line and communicating spend to stakeholders in a structured, data-driven way

• Entrepreneurial, autonomous, and proactive - you thrive in ambiguity, take full ownership, and deliver results without needing a playbook

• Comfortable being on-site a minimum of 3 days per week in the Istanbul office

• Experience setting up a brand-new office from scratch is a strong plus

• Prior experience in a high-growth tech or gaming company is a plus
