Qualifications:

·      Relevant experience in operations, office management, workplace experience or a comparable customer-facing role.

·      The ability to manage multiple functions and competing priorities without losing sight of the details.

·      Strong interpersonal skills and a confident, polished approach to clients, senior stakeholders and colleagues.

·      A proactive mindset: you anticipate needs, take initiative and follow through.

·      Experience managing vendors, expenditure, travel arrangements and events.

·      Excellent organisation, communication and problem-solving skills.
