ABOUT THE JOB

Working out of our London hub in Bermondsey, you’ll be at the centre of our dynamic sourcing network. We bring together a diverse community of people here, from growers to chefs to shareholders. You will embody Natoora’s core values to anyone who sets foot through the door. You’ll be bold, active and human. 

You will not only be entrusted with the day to day management of the office, but the preservation of our office culture - something Natoora has taken great pride in since the very beginning.  The way in which we interact and work together within our shared office space plays an integral role in the success of Natoora, which goes hand in hand with staff productivity and wellbeing.  

You will have the opportunity to work on the bigger picture - from initiating ways to make our workplace more sustainable, to finding new approaches to motivate and engage the office, to working on additions for our seasonal daily lunch menu.  You will be the office go to when it comes to any special purchase requests, help with setting up meetings and in house events, office maintenance,  or if someone simply needs to speak to a friendly face. 

Bold: As a company, we know exactly who we are and what we’re working towards. As our office manager, you’ll demonstrate that same confidence and control in every part of your job, from greeting guests to dealing with administrative tasks. 

Active: We’re never passive, seizing every opportunity to observe, learn and improve. From setting priorities to taking a hands-on approach to solving problems, you’ll take the initiative to make changes. 

Human:  Human relationships are the single most important part of our supply chain. From becoming a key part of the London team to recognising the most trusted figures in our community, you’ll share our passion for people.

• Welcoming and accommodating guests of Natoora
