Part-Time Office Manager Northampton 2 Days Per Week 34,000 FTE ( 17.44 per hour) Are you the person who naturally takes ownership and makes sure everything runs smoothly? We're looking for an experienced Office Manager / Senior Administrator / Business Support professional who enjoys being the go-to person in an office and is comfortable getting involved in a bit of everything. This is a part-time, 2-day-per-week position within a professional services business, supporting the Northampton office while also providing wider support across the business. One day will be focused on managing the Northampton office, with the second giving you the opportunity to get involved in client projects, marketing, systems, compliance and business operations. This isn't a role for someone who wants to sit back and simply process paperwork. We're looking for someone proactive, capable and commercially aware who will spot when something needs doing and take care of it. You'll be trusted to work independently, manage your own priorities and become an important point of support for the wider team. Your week could involve making sure the office is running properly one day, preparing professional client documentation the next, coordinating marketing activity, updating the CRM, liaising with IT providers or helping keep compliance processes on track. Variety is a big part of what makes this role interesting. We're particularly interested in people who: Have previously worked as an Office Manager, Senior Administrator, Executive Assistant, Business Support professional or in a similar position. Are naturally organised and enjoy bringing structure to a busy environment. Have excellent written English and a strong eye for detail. Are confident producing and proofreading professional documents and presentations. Can manage confidential and sensitive information professionally. Are comfortable working with Microsoft Office, CRM systems and databases . Have some exposure to marketing, communications or business development activity. Can deal confidently with senior stakeholders and external contacts. Are happy working independently rather than needing constant direction. Have a 'see it, sort it' mentality and take pride in doing things properly. What makes this role different? You'll have genuine ownership rather than being one small part of a large administration team. You'll be trusted to manage the Northampton office, but you'll also have the opportunity to contribute to projects and areas of the wider business. It's a role where your organisational skills, judgement and initiative will genuinely make a difference. The 2-day working week also makes this an attractive opportunity for someone who has significant experience but is looking for greater flexibility, whether that's for family commitments, a better work-life balance or simply a move away from full-time hours. Hours: 9:00am-5:30pm, 2 days per week Days: To be agreed Salary: 34,000 FTE ( 17.44 per hour), pro rata Location: Northampton, with support across the Northampton and Swindon offices If you're an experienced administrator or office professional who likes having responsibility, enjoys variety and wants to be the person people rely on to get things done, we'd love to hear from you.
