Act as an on-site representative, ensuring contractors deliver a professional service
Provide excellent customer service, responding to workplace issues efficiently
Work with internal teams and external suppliers to ensure high standards of workplace maintenance
Use IT systems to log work, manage tasks, and update maintenance records
What You'll Need:
Experience in office or workplace maintenance

Ability to carry out a range of minor repair tasks independently
Strong customer service and interpersonal skills
Excellent organisation and problem-solving abilities
