• Take on special projects and improve workflows that help the team operate more effectively
• Represent Spotify in interactions with guests and external partners with professionalism and care

• You are open to occasional travel as needed
• You enjoy working in a dynamic environment and bring a steady, reliable approach to your work

Where You’ll Be

• This role is based in New York, NY or Washington, DC
