Office Manager
Dublin Based (Hybrid Working)
WHAT DO WE NEED?
We're looking for an organised, proactive, fun, and people-focused Office Manager to help our team thrive. Around here, we call it a Workplace Experience Manager, because that’s what you’ll do: from facilities management, to handling suppliers, and supporting onboarding and workplace projects, you'll be at the heart of providing a world-class Rooter experience. You’ll have bags of personality and an ability to really get stuff done.
WHO ARE WE?
Even though we’re only 11 years old, Strong Roots has already achieved impressive success. We’re stocked in nearly all the major retailers across Ireland and the UK, are loved by our loyal consumers, and have gained valuable listings across the US. Our products are in freezer aisles across France, Australia, Canada and several other major markets, and we’re building a great reputation in the food service sector in Ireland and the UK.
We’re a proud member of the B Corp community, so we’re committed to our “People, Planet, Profit” promise by delivering delicious, frozen plant-based food designed for busy lives. With the full acquisition by McCain Foods in April 2024, we’re now accelerating our growth and scale globally. While we continue to operate independently, we benefit from the support of one of the world’s largest food brands. Nice!
The Strong Roots Gang includes around 60 people from 13 nationalities across three locations (Dublin HQ, London, New York), with over half of our team identifying as female, including at management levels. We’re committed to diversity in all forms (visible and invisible) and are an equal opportunities employer, so let us know how we can support your application and employment experience. That B Corp status we mentioned? It’s a testament to how we care for our people and always work to help you thrive and feel like you belong here.
WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?
In this Dublin based role you’ll report directly to the Chief People Officer, and will make a positive impact across our entire international business by:
Making sure our office runs smoothly and safely every day.
Creating memorable workplace experiences, from onboarding and milestone moments to team celebrations and surprise treats.
Leading our Culture Crew and helping bring our culture to life through events, initiatives and shared experiences.
Being the go-to person for all things workplace experience, facilities and office operations.
Working with suppliers and partners to keep everything behind the scenes running seamlessly.
Welcoming visitors and helping every Rooter feel right at home.
Looking for ways to make Strong Roots an even better place to work, every single day.
Keeping the practical stuff (and lots of it!) under control too: travel co-ordination, invoicing, office supplies, equipment and workplace administration.
HOW WILL YOU STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD?
It’s a very big crowd, but YOU:
Have 5+ years’ experience in Office/WX Management, possibly even some type of Facilities Management role.
Demonstrate buckets of initiative and are comfortable working autonomously.
Have at least intermediate level skills in MS Office: Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and are generally comfortable and confident with technology.
Are proactive and super-organised in getting things done – with an eagle-eye for detail.
Can comfortably manage multiple tasks at once, effectively prioritising and managing your time and focus.
Communicate expertly and professionally (and with personality and influence!) regardless of the medium or stakeholders.
Solve problems in a systematic and practical way.
WHAT ARE WE OFFERING?
We get it: you’ve been working hard to make yourself a valuable asset, so we’re ready to treat you as such. You’ll receive a competitive salary package (which includes both annual and long-term incentive plans), but you’ll also enjoy a range of benefits that includes matched pension contribution, €1,000 Wellness Wonga, €1,000 contribution to private health insurance, 12 weeks full maternity pay, 2 weeks paid paternity leave, matched charity donations, 23 days annual leave, and more (“Like what?”, you ask? How about a paid half-day every Friday in June, July, and August!? We also give you your Birthday off 🎂).
On top of all that, you’ll be part of something big that’s going to get a lot bigger, FAST.
