As the first recruitment agency in the UK to become a certified B Corp, Prospectus is a recruitment business with a difference. Working exclusively in the not-for-profit sector, we believe our clients change the world for individuals, communities and society. For over 60 years we have been working across the UK and internationally to connect talented people with not-for-profit organisations.
At an exciting time of change, we are now looking to recruit a motivated, people-focused individual to join as an Office Manager.
In this role you will take the lead on creating an office environment that your colleagues will truly want to spend time in while continuing to ensure they can work seamlessly wherever they are. We will need you to be able to see the bigger picture and be comfortable working directly with senior leaders across the business.
You will ensure a keen focus on delivering excellent operational services and processes, including health and safety, building maintenance, office management, ICT, risk management and business continuity, working collaboratively with our external operational partners.
You will have great ideas and think creatively about how you can ensure every Prospectus employee has a great working experience. You’re also practical and able to use your initiative to ensure those day-to-day operational niggles every business has don’t get in the way of that employee experience!
Our Operations Assistant will report to you.
You will have experience in office or facilities management but have seen your role evolve over the last few years as office-based work has moved towards remote and hybrid models. If you are now ready to take what you have learnt during this period to further your Operations career and embrace a more strategic, forward-thinking role we’d love to hear from you.
Previous experience covering ICT, health and safety, managing supplier relationships and office management is essential.
We offer an attractive salary and an annual company bonus scheme. Our benefits include flexible working, a matched pension contribution, 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays (pro-rated if applicable), wellbeing support and 6 days off a year to volunteer (pro-rated if applicable).
Prospectus is committed to being a diverse and inclusive place of work and welcomes applications from all backgrounds, particularly underrepresented groups including people of colour and disabled people. As a Disability Confident employer, we commit to interviewing all candidates with a disability who meet the minimum requirements for the role. We are happy to discuss flexible working opportunities for this role.
Please also contact us if you require any support with submitting your application or would like to apply via another method.
