As the next Office Manager based in our Portsmouth office, you'll play a key role in helping us build the UK's go-to home improvement marketplace. You'll be the person who makes the office genuinely great to work in - owning the space end-to-end, bringing our hybrid working model to life, and making sure every employee who walks through the door feels set up to do their best work. This isn't a background role: you'll be visible, hands-on, and central to how our culture shows up in person.
Responsibilities:- Owning the day-to-day running of the Portsmouth site - from reception and mail to seating plans and internal moves - so the office hums along without anyone having to think about it.
- Being the culture carrier on the ground: activating the space, setting the atmosphere, and making sure every corner of the office reflects how we work and who we are.
- Planning and running internal events, social activities, and all-hands meetings that bring people together and make coming in feel genuinely worthwhile.
- Managing vendor relationships and site budget - cleaning, catering, maintenance, security - holding partners to a high standard and making sure the office stays safe, stocked, and sorted.
- Serving as the designated Health & Safety officer for the site, keeping all documentation, risk assessments, and fire safety protocols up to date and fully compliant.
- Overseeing office supplies, tech accessories, pantry stock, and fleet logistics - so employees always have what they need, without the faff of chasing things down.
- Experience in an office management, workplace experience, or facilities coordination role - ideally in a tech or scaling business.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to juggle multiple vendors, projects, and priorities without dropping anything.
- Clear, confident communication - whether you're dealing with a colleague, a building manager, or a senior leader, you know how to get the right outcome.
- A solid working knowledge of UK Health & Safety requirements; IOSH or NEBOSH certification is a nice-to-have, not a dealbreaker.
