We're looking for someone who takes pride in creating welcoming, well-run spaces and who builds easy rapport with colleagues and senior clients alike. Success means the office feels looked after, guests who feel valued, and operations that run without a hitch.

Kitchen and Communal Areas

- Set up the main kitchen each morning for company breakfast, laying out cereals, bread, spreads and fruit

- Restock four satellite kitchens throughout the day with coffee, milk, sugar and hand towels

- Track stock levels for essentials (milk, bread, fruit and supplies) and place weekly orders

- Keep on top of crockery and cutlery throughout the day: collect, run the dishwasher and return items to storage

- Look after furniture and plants across communal spaces, flagging any damage for repair

 

General Housekeeping

- Restock toilets and showers on each floor with sanitary and hygiene products

- Maintain an accurate inventory of housekeeping supplies

- Change bins as needed and dispose of rubbish

- Report breakages, damage and safety issues promptly

- Handle minor cleaning duties such as wiping down tables between events and dealing with spillages

 

Front of House

- Experience in a hospitality, front of house or customer-facing role

- A natural ability to make people feel welcome, including confidence interacting with senior stakeholders and high-profile visitors

- Strong organisational skills with the ability to prioritise tasks independently across a busy working day

- A proactive, solutions-oriented approach: you spot what needs doing and get on with it

- Clear, professional communication skills

- Reliability and punctuality, with a genuine pride in maintaining high standards
