As Office Manager, you’ll be joining a small, international, and highly collaborative team that invests in the next generation of innovators across fintech, consumer, climate, health, and more. The London office is a vibrant hub of energy and focus, working closely with the two European offices. The team is ambitious, warm, and genuinely values the contribution of each individual - and as Office Manager, you’ll sit at the very centre of it all. This is a hands-on, multifaceted role where no two days are the same. As Office Manager, you’ll have full ownership of the space - not only the day-to-day logistics but also the culture and atmosphere. The Office Manager plays a pivotal role in ensuring the office remains an enlightening and motivating environment for the team, clients, and every guest who walks through the door.

As Office Manager, you’ll deliver a professional yet personal experience that reflects the firm’s values in every detail.

• Coordinate with the two European offices to ensure alignment and connection with company values and processes
• Support with the organisation and delivery of client events and in-office gatherings
• Take ownership of the office space – bring new ideas, always seeking to make improvements both physically and culturally
• Be a trusted source of calm, order, and positive energy in a fast-paced setting

Key Office Manager Requirements:

To thrive in this role, the Office Manager will bring experience from both high-end hospitality and fast-paced office environments. You’re confident, proactive, and always thinking a few steps ahead - a natural problem-solver with sound judgment and a warm, approachable manner. You’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves, you take pride in the details, and you have a genuine passion for people, service, and creating exceptional spaces.

This isn’t just a job - it’s a chance to be part of something meaningful. As Office Manager, you’ll play a central role in the company’s next chapter, supporting brilliant people as they shape the future.
