Role
Who you are
- 💡 At Orbital, we’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We especially welcome applications from people who are traditionally underrepresented in tech. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, or if the right role isn’t listed yet, we’d still love to hear from you
- We want someone who can define what "great" looks like and then go make it happen - someone equally at home rethinking the summer party concept and making sure the snacks never run out
What the job involves
- Our office should feel like the best version of Orbital - energising, considered, and somewhere people genuinely want to be. You'll own that. Not by waiting for someone to point out a problem, but by constantly asking what would make this better - and then making it happen
- Assess what’s working and what isn’t, and proactively improve it
- Refine layout, flow, rituals, and small details that shift perception
- Raise standards without being asked
- You’ll play a central role in shaping our new London office and ensuring the space supports how we work
- From Wednesday lunches to the summer party, from All Hands to company off-sites - every in-person moment is a chance to reinforce culture, build real connection, and make people feel good about where they work. You'll own the events calendar end-to-end and make sure every event is considered, well-executed, and genuinely worth people's time
- Develop clear concepts and briefs
- Manage vendors and budgets confidently
- Create simple communication plans to drive attendance and engagement
- Design lightweight feedback loops, analyse results, and continuously improve
- Great workplace experience starts with a workplace that just works. Snacks stocked. Meeting rooms set up. Vendors sorted. You'll build the systems and habits that keep the fundamentals running so smoothly that nobody has to think about them - because you already have
- The overall standards and day-to-day functioning of the office environment
- Vendor relationships, facilities coordination, and office supplies
- Organising weekly lunches and keeping snacks stocked
- Health & safety essentials
- AV and meeting room setup (calls work, screens connect, rooms are ready)
- Desk booking software: managing the platform and ensuring it reflects real attendance patterns
- Meeting room scheduling and utilisation: preventing friction and resolving booking issues
- You’ll proactively monitor how the office operates, spotting and resolving issues before they surface
- Whether it's a candidate walking in for their first interview or a new joiner arriving on day one, you're often the first face of Orbital people meet in person. That moment matters more than most people realise. You'll make sure it's warm, considered, and sets exactly the right tone
- Working closely with the People and Talent teams, you will:
- Ensure interview days run smoothly, including preparing rooms and coordinating logistics
- Be the welcoming face for candidates on interview days, stepping in as the on-site host when the Talent team aren't available
- Send welcome emails to new joiners ahead of their start date and add them to the new starter programme calendar
- Arrange travel for new joiners who are onboarding at another Orbital office
- Meet new joiners on their first day and lead the office induction alongside IT
- Act as the primary office point of contact throughout the onboarding period
- Reinforce and strengthen our employer brand through every in-person interaction with candidates and new joiners
- A brilliant office initiative that nobody knows about isn't brilliant. You'll make sure people are informed, excited, and showing up - by communicating clearly, consistently, and with real personality
- As part of the wider Back Office ecosystem, you’ll support operational processes where workplace and wider operations intersect
- Standardising the global office experience: Working alongside our US Office Lead to ensure that everyone at Orbital has a great office experience, regardless of where they are based
- High standards, discretion and strong attention to detail
- Strong operational reliability: you create systems so basics don’t break
- Proactive ownership: you don’t wait for detailed briefs
- Background in hospitality or events
- 🔒 Security is everyone’s responsibility at Orbital. We ask all team members to follow our security policies, complete regular awareness training, and handle sensitive data with care in line with ISO 27001 standards. Spot something unusual? Reporting risks or incidents quickly helps us maintain the strong culture of security and compliance we all depend on
- Orbital's London office isn't just a place to sit - it's where culture comes to life, where collaboration gets real, and where the best version of our company shows up every day. We need someone to own that
- As Workplace Experience Manager, you'll be the person who makes in-person time feel intentional, energising, and genuinely worth showing up for. You'll spot what needs improving before anyone else does, elevate what's already good into something exceptional, and care deeply about the details that most people never notice - but everyone feels
- This isn't a head-down admin role, and it's not a purely strategic one either.
- You'll report into our Head of Operations and be based in our London office five days a week

Our take
Legal reasoning requires smart and experienced law professionals, and collating information and data takes up their valuable time. That's why Orbital has used foundational AI models to build an assistant for law professionals. The company builds SaaS solutions that transform how property professionals work by leveraging cutting-edge Generative AI and LLM technologies.
The company's products aggregate geospatial, property, and legal data from diverse sources to provide an unprecedented view of legal risk attached to properties. This provides real estate lawyers and property professionals with a one-stop-shop for property due diligence, allowing a vastly more transparent and efficient process whilst providing a better quality of service to clients.
Orbital's AI solutions are already used by thousands of lawyers and commercial property professionals across the UK and the US. It plans to grow its presence in the US and scale its team to achieve this objective. There is a huge opportunity to transform the way that property, the world's largest asset class, is transacted and bring it into the 21st century.
