We provide serviced offices in prime locations across the heart of London. We take a distinctive approach to the serviced office industry, drawing inspiration from the standards of high-end hospitality.
We are not looking for industry insiders. We are drawn to people who bring sharp, transferable skills and a fresh perspective. If you have the right foundations, a service-led attitude, agility, and the hunger to grow, we will equip you with the tools and training to thrive. Potential and mindset matter more than where you have come from.
We believe great work deserves great rewards, which is why we offer a competitive salary, performance bonuses, and a range of perks designed to help our people thrive. From career development and wellness support to unforgettable team events and meaningful time off, we have built a culture that supports ambition and celebrates success along the way.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This is the role where you stop being managed and start learning how to manage a business. You will work directly alongside one of our General Managers running a serviced office in prime Central London, you will be their right hand on operations, clients, and team.
The brief is simple: learn the business inside out, prove you can run it, and then take ownership of your own centre.
We do not hire Assistant General Managers as a long-term position we hire them as future General Managers. If you perform well, you can expect to take ownership of your own centre within 12-18 months. We will support you with the training, mentorship, and responsibility needed to get you there.
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU
A direct path to General Manager. This role exists to produce the next generation of General Managers. The trajectory is real. We move people when they are ready, not when a slot opens.
Real responsibility from week one. You will run team meetings, handle client issues, manage suppliers, lead projects, and step in as General Manager when required.
A front-row seat to how a business operates. You will gain exposure to the commercial side of the business, including P&L performance, sales activity, and key operational decision-making. We believe in giving future leaders real insight, responsibility, and visibility into the business they are being developed to lead.
Mentorship that compounds. Your General Manager is your coach. Senior leadership is involved in your development from day one. You will learn how to read people, lead under pressure, and how to handle management.
Pay that reflects what you bring. We offer £50,000 base salary, with the opportunity to earn up to £60,000 OTE through performance bonuses. High performance is recognised and rewarded, with clear progression as you develop towards a General Manager role.
KEY RESPONSIBILTIES
You are the General Manager's right hand across three areas: operations, clients, and team.
In practice:
Operations. Run the day-to-day so the General Manager can focus on growth. Daily walk-arounds, supplier management, facilities, health & safety, billing, projects, and anything else that keeps the building running at the standard we expect.
Client experience. Be a visible, trusted point of contact for clients. Handle issues before they escalate. Build relationships that make clients want to renew. Plan client events and the small details that make the centre feel premium.
Team. Help lead the team alongside the General Manager coaching the more junior staff, performance conversations, and stepping up to run the centre when the General Manager is off-site.
