Global Workplace Operations Coordinator

As the Global Workplace Operations Coordinator, your role is integral to creating an enjoyable and productive working environment at SilverDoor.

You will be responsible for managing our Lancaster office’s day-to-day operations and act as the first point of contact for Office Coordinators across the business, providing them with guidance and support. This will also involve travelling to assist Office Coordinators where required, as well as playing an active role in updating policies and procedures to ensure consistency and compliance across our operations.

Your role will be wide-ranging, combining administrative tasks and operational responsibilities. Based in our Lancaster office, you will work closely with our Global Workplace Operations Manager to oversee maintenance, procurement, health and safety, and compliance requirements for both the Lancaster and London offices — with the intention for the role to grow to assist with the complete company portfolio.

In addition, you will oversee the company’s travel booking platform, coordinate and support office and company events, and take ownership of onboarding and training new Office Coordinators to ensure they are fully equipped to support the wider Workplace Operations team.

We are looking for someone with a positive outlook who can act on their own initiative, be proactive, resolve problems as they arise, and bring a ‘can-do’ attitude to everything they do. In this role, you will serve as a proud brand ambassador for SilverDoor, embodying our values and professionalism.

As the first point of contact within the Lancaster office and for all Office Coordinators, you will maintain a high office standard whilst also maintaining the same standards within our Chiswick Park office.
