What you'll do:
- Be the first point of contact for the office, greeting employees, visitors, and guests with a warm, professional welcome
- Manage the front desk: answer calls, handle incoming/outgoing mail and deliveries, and direct inquiries to the right person or team
- Support the Facility Manager with day-to-day office operations, from vendor and contractor check-ins to tracking maintenance requests and following up on open items
- Coordinate meeting room bookings and set-up, ensuring spaces are ready and well-presented for internal and external meetings
- Manage visitor access, badges, and sign-in processes, keeping security and compliance records up to date
- Monitor and replenish pantry and office supplies, flagging stock needs to the Facility Manager and helping maintain supplier relationships
- Assist with organizing health & safety documentation, drills, and compliance checklists under the Facility Manager’s guidance
- Provide administrative support for renovation or office improvement projects, such as scheduling, notifying staff, and tracking action items
- Help uphold hygiene, organization, and presentation standards across all shared spaces, partnering with the cleaning team when needed
Who we're looking for:
- Experienced in a receptionist, front desk, or office coordination role, ideally in a fast-paced, international environment
- Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented, so nothing falls through the cracks
- Friendly and professional, and enjoy being the face of the office for employees and guests alike
- A clear, confident communicator in person and over phone/email
- Comfortable juggling multiple small tasks at once, and aware of when to escalate something to the Facility Manager
- Proactive: if you spot an issue, you flag it or fix it rather than waiting to be asked
- Familiar with basic health & safety or office compliance practices, or eager to learn
- Fluent in German and English, and happy working with a diverse, multicultural team
What we offer:
- A professional environment where you will have the opportunity of running the front-of-house operations of an international workplace.
