Job description

At Planon, our office is more than a workspace. It’s where collaboration, innovation, and teamwork come together. As our part-time Office Manager (max. 28 hours/week), you’ll be the anchor for our UK team, ensuring operations run seamlessly and that everyone, from colleagues to visitors, feels supported and welcome.

In this role, you will:

  • Provide seamless administrative support: manage meeting requests, set up conference calls, handle correspondence, scanning, filing, and mail distribution.
  • Welcome and assist visitors and clients: act as the first point of contact and ensure a professional, friendly experience.
  • Coordinate office operations and facilities: oversee maintenance, repairs, office equipment, supplies, fleet & phone management, and liaise with building security or managing agents.
  • Organize staff events and support HR initiatives: plan celebrations, onboarding activities, and business update meetings.
  • Support Finance and research tasks: assist with invoice scanning, compile data, and conduct research as needed.
  • Maintain Health & Safety and compliance: handle risk assessments, audits, and ensure office compliance with regulations.

We’re looking for an Office Manager who keeps the office running like clockwork and supports the team with a proactive, hands-on approach.

  • Strong verbal and written English skills to engage effectively with colleagues, clients, and visitors.
  • Able to prioritise tasks and ensure smooth daily operations.
  • Comfortable adjusting to changing work demands and priorities.
  • Confident with Microsoft Office, general office tools, and equipment.
  • Knowledge of UK regulations and practical office compliance.
  • Collaborative across teams and living in the Brighton area.
