Our client is a leading sports association running global events and tours for its professional sportsmen. They are a high profile organisation and you will be working in a fabulous location with a great team - full of drive and energy. They are about to commence an office refurbishment which will require them to move into temporary accommodation, and then back into the newly refurbished space once completed. They need someone to help them project manage the process. You will therefore need specific experience in office moves / relocations. The Director will handle the high level project management and decisions, but she needs a "right-hand" person to assist with the detailed planning and some of the groundwork.
Main responsibilities will include:
- Assisting the Director with the initial planning stages of a short-term relocation
- Research and shortlist potential temporary office locations
- Project manage the move on a practical level, using initiative to think about and solve potential issues including phone lines / seating arrangements / removals / photocopiers / office supplies / furniture etc
- Help with the project management of the refurbishment
- Help with the move back into the refurbished premises
Person specification:
You will need to be highly organised, efficient, dynamic and assertive in order to deal with the multiple issues that need to be co-ordinated. You will need excellent time management and communication skills. Experience planning and executing an office move is essential.
This will be an initial 6 month fixed term contract, starting as soon as possible. There is no guarantee of an extension to this, but given the nature of building work and refurbishments, the role could potentially be extended.
