Partner Support You will provide practical support to the Partners where needed, including: tracking and following up actions from meetings to ensure they are completed helping prepare agendas, notes and documents co-ordinating internal information supporting practice-wide events and workshops assisting with occasional personal administration where appropriate The role does not involve routine diary or inbox management. Working with the Office Manager You will work closely with our Office Manager. While they manage bookkeeping, VAT, payments and routine administration, your focus will be forward-looking: invoicing, forecasting, reporting, resourcing and overall practice co-ordination. What Success Looks Like In this role, success means helping the practice stay organised, aligned and on track - with clear visibility of workload, finances and priorities, and ensuring that actions and decisions are consistently followed through. This includes implementing and maintaining clear financial reporting and cash flow forecasting; identifying, prioritising and implementing key systems and ways of working; maintaining a consistent cadence of senior team meetings; ensuring actions are delivered each quarter; and ensuring priorities and updates are communicated clearly across the practice. Who We're Looking For We are looking for someone who is organised, proactive and confident working across a range of responsibilities. You will be: Confident with systems and technology - comfortable improving software and processes and helping others use them properly Highly organised - able to track actions, priorities and deadlines and ensure things move forward Comfortable with numbers - able to review budgets, invoicing, forecasts and resourcing data A strong communicator - clear, confident and able to follow through Detail-focused - producing accurate, well-presented documents and reports Practical and proactive - comfortable taking ownership Flexible - happy working in a small practice where priorities evolve Experience in architecture, construction, consultancy, heritage, design or another project-based professional services environment would be helpful, but not essential.
