Apply NowOffice Manager - New Office Launch & Workplace Operations
📍 St Andrews, Fife | 🕒 18‑month Fixed Term Contract | 🏢 100% Office Based
🔁 Strong potential to become permanent
Are you an Office Manager who loves creating a fantastic workplace experience - and wants the rare opportunity to help set up a brand new office from scratch? ✨
This is an exciting and hands-on role where you'll lead the day-to-day coordination of a new office opening, then take full ownership of the office once it's live. It's ideal for someone who enjoys being the heartbeat of the office, juggling people, suppliers, facilities, and operations with confidence.
This is not a technical project role - it's about organisation, coordination, communication and making the office run brilliantly.
🏗️ Phase One: Office Set‑Up & Opening Coordination
You'll play a central role in getting the new office ready for launch, including:
🪑 Coordinating office fit-out, furniture, layouts, signage and supplies
📅 Managing key timelines and checklists to ensure opening readiness
🤝 Acting as the main point of contact for suppliers, contractors and internal teams
🖥️ Supporting the setup of office systems such as access control, desk booking and parking
📢 Communicating clearly with staff about the move and office arrangements
✅ Ensuring the office is fully operational, welcoming and ready for day one
🚦 Helping ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption
You'll be the organiser who keeps everything aligned - spotting gaps, solving problems, and keeping things moving.
🏢 Phase Two: Office & Workplace Management
Once the office is open, this becomes a full Office Manager position, including:
🌟 Owning the day‑to‑day running of the office and workplace experience
📬 Managing reception, visitors, post, couriers and office services
🔐 Coordinating building security, access and key stakeholders
🧹 Overseeing cleaning, catering, facilities and service providers
🦺 Ensuring health & safety standards are maintained
💰 Managing office budgets, costs and supplier performance
💡 Continuously improving how the office operates for staff and visitors
You'll be the go‑to person for everything office-related - trusted, visible, and relied upon.
✅ What We're Looking For
✔ Proven experience as an Office Manager, Workplace Manager or Facilities Coordinator
✔ Experience supporting office openings, relocations or workplace changes (ideal but not essential)
✔ Strong organisational skills and confidence juggling multiple priorities
✔ Comfortable managing suppliers, budgets and operational details
✔ Excellent communication skills - friendly, clear and professional 💬
✔ Happiest working in a fully office-based role
✔ Proactive, practical and solutions-focused
🎉 Why Apply?
🚀 A rare opportunity to help launch a brand‑new office
🏢 A role with real ownership and visibility
📍 Work in the beautiful setting of St Andrews
🔄 18‑month FTC with genuine long‑term potential
