THE EXPAND
This isn't a job where you disappear into spreadsheets. You'll be the first face visitors see. You'll manage the office rhythm; from petty cash to courier logistics, from setting up monthly team meetings to keeping the kitchen stocked and the space sharp. But the role goes deeper: you'll help build the systems and procedures that will scale as the business grows, and you'll own their team events and support their marketing with social media and creative work.
Your bosses want someone comfortable moving between strategic thinking and tactical execution, someone who sees inefficiency and fixes it. The team is close, professional but genuinely social; monthly beers and pizza, annual events where people actually show up because they want to, and they're explicit: personality fit matters more than a perfect CV.
BENEFITS
You'll work somewhere that trusts you to own your space. Which means no micromanagement, no being watched. Which means real autonomy and the chance to shape how things run from day one. You'll have input on systems and processes as the business develops, so your ideas actually land. Which means you're not just executing someone else's vision; you're building something. You'll also join a team that values balance; 25 days holiday plus your birthday off, Scottish Widows pension, life assurance, GP access. Which means the business is thinking about your whole life, not just the hours you're in the office.
THE HONEST DETAIL
This role is office-based, five days a week. There's no work-from-home option. The team needs someone present, visible, holding the space together. That's non-negotiable for them, and fair to flag upfront.
THE COMPANY
Our client is a construction business in the pre-construction and fit-out space. They work with contractors and clients on complex projects, and they're at the stage where culture and systems matter as much as delivery. They're growing deliberately, not frantically.
REQUIREMENTS
One or more years in office management, administration, or coordination. Basic competence with social media, marketing tools, or design software (InDesign, Canva, etc.) is a bonus, not essential. Genuine interest in how systems work and a willingness to help build them.
THE ASK
If this sounds like your kind of place, get in touch with Colleen Murray: (email address removed). Tell her what draws you to it, no formal application needed yet, just a conversation. We're quality over quantity, which means we only want to hear from people who actually see themselves here
