Building Manager & Front of House (FOH)
Location:
Central London (Zone 1) – Primary Building
Virtual oversight of secondary building (Zone 2)
Hours:
Full-time, Monday to Friday (8:30am – 5:30pm)
On-site, 5 days per week
Salary: £40,000 – £50,000 (DOE)
Role Overview
We are seeking an experienced and highly professional Building Manager & Front of House (FOH) to take full-time responsibility for a flagship Central London building, with additional virtual oversight of a secondary building as required.
This is a client-facing, hands-on role requiring exceptional customer service, strong tenant engagement skills, and confidence in contractor management. A solid understanding of building systems and compliance requirements is also important.
More importantly, we’re looking for someone who is proactive, resilient and comfortable working independently. This is a hands-on role where you’ll need to take ownership, identify issues and find practical solutions rather than waiting for direction.
The environment won’t always be perfect, so you’ll need to be comfortable coming into a role where there is work to do, bringing structure where needed and making things happen with limited supervision.
