  • Performing general housekeeping throughout the office during the day ensuring that everywhere is neat and clean with crockery being restocked as appropriate
  • Liaising with the central Office Services team to support colleagues with all operational issues including maintenance, booking of couriers and meeting room booking
  • Being the primary operational support within your office, supported by the central Office Services team to undertake a variety of operational tasks
  • Working with the Office Services Projects Manager to produce and update office seating plans periodically
  • Hosting local events and presenting food, beverages and specialist catering within the office
  • reporting maintenance needs and overseeing contractors
  • Acting as the local representative for all other Business Services teams (IT, HR, Compliance, Data Management, Finance, Facilities) in each of the offices
