Senior Workplace Project Manager (Contract)

We're building the world's first creative entertainment platform, where the entire world can feel the joy and fulfillment of making music. Music is for everyone: Our users include everyone from grandmothers creating songs for their loved ones, to Grammy winners using Suno Studio, our power tool, to make the most popular hits in the world.

Building the future of entertainment requires ambition. The pace is fast, the problems are hard, and the work demands ownership and intensity. For the right people, it’s incredibly rewarding: a chance to shape a new medium, work with a small team that cares deeply about quality, make music, drink too much coffee, and build something that millions of people use to express themselves in ways that were never before possible.

Suno is the fastest growing consumer entertainment company and the leader in AI music. We are backed by leading investors including Bond Capital, Menlo Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, IVP, Forerunner, Union Square Ventures, Alkeon, Quiet, Matrix Partners, Schroders Capital and, NVentures (venture arm of NVIDIA).

About the role

We're hiring a Senior Workplace Project Manager on a contract basis to lead the planning, design, and delivery of our new NYC and Cambridge, MA offices, with a target move-in of summer 2027. This is a defined-scope engagement with the opportunity to convert to a full-time role.

You'll own both projects end-to-end and serve as Suno's owner's representative throughout design and construction. You'll report to the Director of Workplace Experience & Real Estate, and work closely with Finance, IT, Legal, and all our external real estate and architect partners across both locations.

• Serve as Suno's owner's representative throughout design and construction, coordinating reviews and approvals with Finance, IT, Legal, and People

• Support space planning and occupancy analysis to inform decisions on both sites

• Hands-on experience with MEP systems, FF&E, AV/IT integration, and commercial interiors

• Comfortable reading and interpreting architectural and engineering drawings

• Experience navigating lease documents and work letters (with Legal support)
