About Us

At WeWork, we provide flexible workspace solutions to help businesses of all sizes thrive in more than 37 countries worldwide. The future of work is here, and we’re not just a part of that movement—we’re leading it. United by a desire to build a global community, our purpose is to give members the support to do their best work, and the space to take their ideas to new heights. Join us as we empower tomorrow’s world at work.

About The Opportunity

Community and commitment to our Members have been our brand’s driving force. We put our Members at the heart of everything we do and nowhere is this truer than in our support hubs around the world including London, Mexico, Miami & Seoul. Even in today’s digital world, there are times when Members want a personal touch or help that only a human being can give them. That’s where you come in.

WeWork’s Member Support team is on the lookout for a Senior Lead, based in London and reporting directly to the Member Experience Director.

You’ll have no problem stepping in and delivering or arranging (in collaboration with in-building teams) ‘service recovery’ that could make a massive difference to our reputation and to our Members’ experience when we haven’t got something right.

Through appropriate, regular, and creative communications, you’ll inform teams of any daily and unexpected operational changes, updates, and tools they need to do their job properly.
