How to Apply for Lease and Facilities Administrator

at Lime

🏢 About Lime

Lime is a leader in micromobility, providing shared electric scooters and bikes that transform urban transportation with eco-friendly solutions. Working at Lime means contributing to sustainable cities while being part of a fast-growing tech company that values innovation and accessibility. Their remote-first culture offers flexibility while maintaining strong collaboration across teams.

About This Role

As Lease and Facilities Administrator for the Americas region, you'll manage all lease documentation, payments, and compliance for Lime's operational sites, directly supporting their physical footprint expansion. This role is impactful because accurate lease administration ensures operational continuity for scooter/bike deployment while optimizing real estate costs. You'll be the critical link between Finance, Procurement, and facilities vendors.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day involves reviewing lease documents for upcoming renewals, processing rent payments for multiple properties across the Americas, and reconciling CAM charges with Finance. You might onboard a new maintenance vendor for a scooter storage facility, update lease data in Visual Lease, and prepare documentation for an upcoming audit while coordinating with teams across time zones.
