• Coordinate meeting schedules, travel arrangements and correspondence for the Business Development Team and department leads.
• Manage office supplies, equipment and asset inventories, and coordinate procurement with Finance.
• Support new-hire onboarding logistics — workspace setup, identification, welcome materials — alongside HR.
• Act as a secondary point of contact for visitors and general correspondence, backing up the Front Desk/Client Support Officer.
• Assist Finance with basic expense tracking, petty cash administration and receipt filing.
• Maintain the office’s health, safety and general upkeep standards.
