This role covers a wide range of responsibilities including administration, IT coordination (alongside external IT support), pastoral care, event organising, and general office management to ensure everything runs smoothly and productively.

- Managing office supplier contracts including cleaners and printer maintenance
- Project managing ad hoc culture initiatives and maintaining good office vibes
- Onboarding new employees and freelance contractors
- Coordinating Wonderbly Crown Awards nominations and award designing
- Managing supplier gifting for Christmas and other occasions

This role is varied and dynamic, perfect for someone who enjoys multitasking and supporting a creative, collaborative environment.
