Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better.<br><br>About The Role<br><br>Headway is hiring a Director of Real Estate & Workplace to own the physical foundation of how we work — our offices in New York, San Francisco, and Seattle, and every decision about where we sit and what it feels like to be there. This person will own real estate strategy and transactions, our buildout program, in-house facilities management, and the entire employee office experience, reporting directly to our Chief People Officer.<br><br>This is not a maintenance role. Headway is scaling from ~900 to ~1,300 employees in 2026, and our footprint has to scale with it — which means negotiating leases, running buildouts, managing sub-tenants, and raising the bar on what our offices do for the people in them, all at once. You'll inherit an in-house facilities team spread across three offices, and you’ll partner closely with our exec team, Finance, Legal, IT, and People Operations to translate how Headway wants to work into the space we work in — and to hold the company accountable to what that space costs and what it returns.<br><br>What You'll Own<br><br>End-to-end real estate strategy. Own portfolio strategy across New York, San Francisco, and Seattle: looking around the corner to project space needs against headcount growth, building the scenarios and financial models behind every footprint decision, and bringing the exec team decision-ready recommendations for real estate strategy. Lease transactions and sub-tenants. Run the full lifecycle — market analysis, site selection, RFPs, letters of intent, negotiation, lease review, approvals, and signing — managing our brokers and landlord relationships throughout. You will also own our sublease strategy and sub-tenant relationships, from identifying underutilized space to placing it and managing sub-tenants through their occupancy. Buildout and capital projects. Own every real-estate capital project: new construction, expansions, renovations, reconfigurations, and decommissions. Source and manage contractors, architects, and project managers; hold them to scope, schedule, and cost; and deliver on time and on budget with minimal disruption to the business. Workplace strategy and employee experience. Own what it feels like to work in a Headway office — F&B, amenities, guest and visitor services, front-of-house, and all the details that make up an in-person experience. Develop and drive a workplace strategy that makes our offices somewhere people gravitate toward, and evolve it as we learn. In-house facilities management. Own day-to-day operations across all three sites — building services, preventive and reactive maintenance, office services, space and seating planning — delivered by our own team, with the standards, playbooks, and service levels that keep quality scalable and consistent site to site. Budget and accountability. Own the operating and capital budgets, and define the right metrics to measure success and progress – occupancy and utilization, cost per seat, sublease recovery, project delivery, vendor performance, and how employees actually feel about our offices.<br><br>You'd Be a Great Fit If…<br><br>You think in systems. You build the standards, operating rhythms, and metrics that make a function self-improving rather than dependent on you personally. You can own real estate end to end. You've personally negotiated commercial office leases, run a buildout program, and managed sub-tenants — not overseen a broker who did it for you. You're fluent in real estate financial analysis, including lease accounting principles. You have real command of facilities craft. You know how to find and source building contractors, evaluate their work, and hold them accountable. You see around the corner on office improvements, architecture, and leasing requirements — anticipating what a space will need before it becomes urgent. You're obsessed with workplace experience. You have a point of view on what makes people want to be in an office, and a track record of developing, owning, and driving a workplace strategy that delivered it. You treat the office as a product, not a cost center. You're an exceptional people manager. You've led a decentralized team across multiple offices, coaching and developing people who don't sit where you sit. You'll inherit an in-house facilities team and are energized by growing your team. You're a credible partner to the exec team. You collaborate exceptionally well at the executive level and thrive in a collaborative environment. You thrive in an AI-forward, high-velocity, high-agency environment. You see AI as a design principle rather than a bolt-on, you move fast without waiting to be told what to do, and you're comfortable owning outcomes with limited scaffolding. You have 12+ years in corporate real estate, workplace operations, or facilities leadership, including multi-site responsibility, with at least 3 years managing people.<br><br>We believe a team's strength is in its people, and we cannot achieve this mission without a team that reflects the diversity of this problem – across race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, age, national origin, religion, family status, disability, military status, and experience.

With our momentum—backed by a $17.3 billion valuation and $1 B in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) in just over five years—you'll drive meaningful impact while building expertise that makes you a sought-after leader in the transformation of global work.<br><br>About The Role<br><br>Deel IT manages the full device lifecycle for Deel's global workforce: procurement, shipping, device support, and returns across 100+ countries and a network of 50+ couriers and suppliers. It's a high-stakes internal operation where SLAs are real, complexity is everywhere, and the cost of failure is visible across the whole company.<br><br>We have two core platforms in place that handle real, global complexity across all 100+ countries: an internal admin platform and a supplier platform that manages our network of 50+ couriers and vendors. These platforms touch warehouse operations, logistics, procurement, and manage the full marketplace coordination. They work. They handle scale.<br><br>The next phase is twofold. First, we automate the manual workflows that still exist on top of and around these platforms. We digitize and AI-ify our current processes so humans aren't doing work that could be automated. Second, we expand what suppliers can do through the platform itself, so they can take on more complexity and we can offload more work to them. Right now they want to do more but don't have the platform structure to make it happen. That's the opportunity.<br><br>We're hiring a Staff PM to own the Operations product surface and drive that automation and expansion agenda.<br><br>The scope is large. The engineering capacity is there (growing from 8 to 18). The operational complexity is real. What's needed is someone who can look at the sprawling landscape (logistics, device lifecycle, IT support, supplier networks, SLAs, platforms, data) and come back with an opinionated roadmap about what automation moves the needle most, how to unlock supplier capacity, what ships next, and why.<br><br>You won't be handed a pre-defined backlog to execute. You won't get heavy direction on what to build. You'll operate with real autonomy. You'll dig into data, talk to ops teams and suppliers, validate assumptions, think in systems, and come back with a clear point of view. Then you'll drive it.<br><br>This is a high-ownership role in a high-pace environment. It's also one of the highest-leverage roles in Deel IT: what you ship directly unblocks dozens of people and saves the company real money.<br><br>What you'll do<br><br>Own the Operations product surface with real autonomy.<br><br>You Won't Get a Roadmap Handed To You. You'll Have Access To Smart, Generous People (engineering, Operations, Finance, Suppliers) Who Can Answer Your Questions And Give You Context. But They Won't Give You The Map. You'll Need To Dig, Synthesise, Validate, And Come Back With a Clear Point Of View. Here's What That Looks Like In Practice<br><br>Diagnose and prioritise relentlessly. You'll pull data from multiple sources: the engineering backlog, logistics performance, IT support ticket patterns, supplier feedback, financial impact. You'll synthesise it into a ruthless roadmap: what moves the needle, what can ship fast, what's worth the engineering effort, and what's not. You'll own this roadmap and defend it when people push back. You'll iterate it based on what you learn. Drive automation that removes humans from the loop. Your north star is shipping features that automate manual workflows and reduce human-in-the-loop steps across operations and supplier networks. Examples include shipping label generation (end-to-end), real-time tracking aggregation, device condition documentation, IT support ticket routing and resolution, and supplier onboarding workflows. You'll scope each one, ship it, measure it, and move to the next. Own the metrics that matter. Define what good looks like across on-time device delivery rate, IT support ticket response time, revenue per operations headcount, and revenue per engineering headcount. You'll build dashboards and early-warning systems that surface SLA risk before it becomes a crisis. You'll track them live and close the gaps relentlessly. Translate complexity into clean, well-scoped work. You'll sit between four worlds: frontline operations (messy, data-rich, constraint-heavy); engineering (clear-headed, velocity-focused); suppliers (incentive-aligned but distributed); and finance (outcome-focused). You'll take the complexity and translate it into clean, well-scoped work that engineering can execute fast. You'll maintain a tight feedback loop so you learn quickly when you're wrong. Use AI actively in your day-to-day. Not as a nice-to-have. As your default. Research, synthesis, data analysis, decision documents, spotting patterns in unstructured feedback. You'll be fluent in prompt engineering and you'll show it, not just talk about it.<br><br>What we're looking for<br><br>Essential<br><br>6+ years of product management experience, with at least 1 year at Staff PM level or equivalent senior IC role. You've owned a significant problem space end-to-end. You've shipped under pressure. You've made calls with incomplete information and learned from them. Builder mindset, not project manager. (This is non-negotiable.) You take a messy, loosely-defined problem space and solve it. You're comfortable without a roadmap. You ask "why?" and "what are we really trying to achieve?" and you come back with a crisp point of view. You thrive on autonomy. You don't need to be told what to do. You dig to understand what matters. You're impatient with ambiguity and you have a bias toward clarity. Fast-iterative mentality. You've operated in fast-scaling environments where you've seen the cost of slow decisions and the leverage of fast feedback loops. You ship, measure, learn, adjust. You're comfortable with 80% certainty and a strong conviction. You iterate based on data, not consensus. Systems thinker. You see how teams, tools, and processes connect. You find leverage points others miss. You think about unintended consequences. You optimise for the whole system, not the piece in front of you. When you're looking at a logistics problem, you see how it connects to IT support, supplier incentives, and engineering velocity. Execution-led and detail-oriented. You're close to the work. You move fast without losing quality. You drive delivery. You're comfortable holding detail and you're impatient with fluff. You communicate with clarity and conciseness: you get to the point fast. Data fluent and self-sufficient. You're comfortable with SQL, data platforms, and spreadsheets. You pull your own analysis. You don't wait for someone else to tell you what the data says. You build your own views. Numbers don't faze you. Active AI user. You use AI tools in your day-to-day work: research, synthesis, writing, analysis, decision-making. You can show concrete examples of how you use it, not just describe it conceptually. You're curious about new tools and you experiment with them.<br><br>Nice-to-have<br><br>Experience with supplier networks or platform product work where the "customer" is internal or distributed (not a consumer-facing product). Experience scaling a product or business through hypergrowth. You've felt scaling pain. You've had to rethink architectures, processes, and teams as you've grown.<br><br>About Deel IT Culture — What This Role Demands<br><br>This is a high-ownership, high-autonomy role in a team that moves at pace. Before you apply, make sure you recognise yourself in this:<br><br>You self-direct and own your vertical like a founder. There's no roadmap handed to you. You dig, validate, think, and decide. You come back with a clear point of view. You're the CEO of your area. You move fast with conviction. You're comfortable making calls with incomplete information. You iterate based on data, not consensus. You're impatient with process. You bias toward action. You think in systems and you're comfortable with trade-offs. You manage across logistics, device lifecycle, IT support, and supplier networks. You see how decisions in one area ripple into others. You make trade-offs explicitly and you can defend them. You're intellectually rigorous and you invite challenge. You back your decisions with data, not gut feel. You're impatient with hand-waving. You challenge assumptions (yours and others') and you're comfortable being challenged back. You change your mind when the evidence warrants it. You communicate with clarity and you're impatient with ambiguity. You get to the point fast. You distil complex problems into clear language. Long-windedness bothers you. You're comfortable operating with sparse direction. You won't have a manager who tells you what to do every day. You won't get hand-held. You will have access to smart people who can answer questions and give you context. You'll use that to self-direct.<br><br>Total Rewards<br><br>Our workforce deserves fair and competitive pay that meets them where they are.
