At Saint-Gobain Ecophon, we're looking for a Workplace and Office Coordinator to join our team in Ramsdell and play a key role in creating an exceptional workplace experience for colleagues, customers and visitors alike. This is a brand-new role, making it a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves variety, enjoys taking ownership, and wants the chance to genuinely shape how a role develops. Rather than stepping into an established routine, you'll have the opportunity to bring fresh ideas, identify improvements, and make a real impact on the day-to-day running of our workplace.
You'll be at the heart of the business, helping everything run smoothly behind the scenes. One minute you could be welcoming visitors and preparing meeting spaces, the next you'll be coordinating sample requests, managing workplace facilities, supporting health and safety activities, or ensuring colleagues have everything they need to do their jobs effectively. If you're someone who likes to stay busy, enjoys solving problems and takes pride in creating a positive environment for others, you'll thrive in this role.
What we're looking for:
- Experience in reception, office administration, facilities, workplace coordination, or a similar customer-focused environment.
- A highly organised individual who can juggle multiple priorities whilst keeping calm and focused.
- Someone who naturally takes ownership, spots what needs doing and gets on with it.
- A confident communicator who enjoys building relationships and creating positive experiences for colleagues and visitors.
- A proactive, hands-on person who's happy rolling up their sleeves and getting involved wherever needed.
What you will be doing:
- Creating a welcoming and professional experience for visitors, customers and contractors arriving on site.
- Coordinating meeting rooms, visitor access, workplace facilities and office services to ensure everything runs seamlessly.
- Managing office supplies, refreshments, stationery and workplace resources so colleagues have everything they need.
- Coordinating acoustic sample requests, dispatching products and maintaining stock levels to support customer needs.
- Supporting workplace standards, facilities activities and health & safety processes to help create a safe, organised and efficient working environment.
Why join us?
This role would suit someone who enjoys being the person everyone relies on. You'll have the freedom to use your initiative, influence how the workplace operates, and make a visible difference every day. Because this is a newly created position, you'll have the opportunity to help define what success looks like and leave your own mark on the role from the very beginning.
If you're forward-thinking, naturally organised, and love being involved in lots of different aspects of a business, we'd love to hear from you.
At Saint-Gobain, we're always open to new ways of working. Everyone has different needs and commitments. We'll happily discuss any need you might have for this role. Whilst we can't promise to meet every request when we're recruiting, we do promise to listen.
If you're someone who likes variety, enjoys making things happen, and wants the opportunity to shape a brand-new role, we'd love to hear from you.
