Come join us! About the Opportunity AlphaSense is a high-growth global technology company redefining how organizations access and use market intelligence. As we scale toward a global workforce of ~3,500 employees and prepare for public-company rigor, we are reshaping our global physical footprint and how we deliver our employee experience. We believe that a world-class physical and cultural environment is a fundamental driver of high performance and a critical component of our talent value proposition. To attract, motivate, and retain top-tier global talent, we are building a Workplace, Community & Experience function that integrates physical office strategy, cultural programming, and employee connection into a single, cohesive portfolio. We are seeking a Director of Global Real Estate & Workplace Experience to build and lead this global organization. This executive will architect a unified portfolio strategy, develop scalable environments, and partner closely with Finance, Corporate IT, Legal, and leaders across the business to ensure our office hubs and community initiatives reflect both strong financial discipline and a deeply employee-centered philosophy. It is a rare opportunity to design a next-generation workplace ecosystem at a company entering a new chapter of scale, performance, and maturity. What You Will Lead In this role, you will architect and operationalize a global workplace strategy that reinforces connection, belonging, and productivity. You will oversee all aspects of physical environments and cultural experiences, both in-office and remote, ensuring they serve as the lived expression of our culture. Central to this will be creating a clear, modern narrative for how our physical environments support a high-performance workforce while reflecting the maturity required for a company entering a new chapter of scale. • Global Real Estate & Portfolio Strategy: You will direct a complex global property portfolio, leading site selection, lease negotiations, and renewals across North America, EMEA, and APAC. You will manage broker and landlord relationships to ensure our physical footprint aligns with our growth trajectory and financial targets. • High-Performance Environments: You will design and curate physical and remote environments tailored to the specific functional needs of local teams. You will ensure our hubs are optimized for collaboration, innovation, and the rapid execution required of a high-growth SaaS organization. Capital Projects & Design: You will lead office build-outs and expansion projects, managing external architects, general contractors, and project budgets to deliver premium environments on time and under budget. • Fluid Working & Experience Programming: You will own our Fluid Working approach, ensuring our physical spaces facilitate high-value connection and mentorship. You will ensure our global hubs serve as the premium ‘center of gravity’ for our culture, providing a seamless and productive transition for employees between remote work and in-person collaboration. • Cross-Functional Partnership & Execution: You will build deep, collaborative partnerships with Finance, Corporate IT, Security, Legal, and Business Stakeholders to get results. You will navigate complex interdependencies—from real estate deal execution to physical security protocols—to ensure our workplace operations are seamless and resilient. • Cultural Experience & Global Programming: While respecting local cultural nuances, you will design a unified, strategic narrative for employee experience and community at AlphaSense, leading related global programming and company rituals—such as Women’s History Month and company holiday events—to drive deep connectedness, belonging, and shared identity. • Governance & Financial Discipline: You will bring high-stakes analytical rigor and operational excellence to the management…
