About the Role
This is a hands-on Office Manager role with a clear scope, covering everything needed to keep a lovely, well-run office ticking day to day.

- Basic HR admin, including standard employment contracts
- Reviewing and improving office processes and systems, with a genuine appetite for exploring where AI and automation could help
- Organising quarterly team socials and helping shape a great day-to-day working environment
