As a Junior Office Project Manager with a focus on workplace projects within our Office Management team, you will support high-impact initiatives that shape how Partners Group operates day to day—from office openings and upgrades to relocations. Working across a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, you will help translate business needs into well-structured plans and deliver outcomes on time in a fast‑paced, high‑accountability environment.

This is a hands‑on role with meaningful ownership, broad exposure across the firm, and a strong learning curve, with opportunities to embed responsible and sustainable workplace practices.

• Build and maintain project plans (scope, milestones, dependencies, risks), and track progress against timelines and deliverables.
• Drive stakeholder coordination across Office Management, IT, external consultants, contractors, landlords, and service providers – ensuring decisions and actions are closed on time.
• Prepare meeting agendas, project updates, decision logs, and executive‑ready status reporting; proactively follow up on open actions.
• Track budgets, documentation, approvals, and project governance materials (minutes, decisions, plans, handover packs).
• Ensure smooth transitions from project delivery into steady‑state operations, including handover documentation and operational playbooks.

• Experience:
  
  3‑5 years of project coordination/project management experience, ideally in office/workplace projects (e.g., fit‑out, move, office opening, facilities‑related projects).
• Project management fundamentals: practical experience in creating and maintaining project plans, task lists, timelines, and status reporting (RAID / action logs).
• Stakeholder management: proven ability to coordinate with multiple stakeholders and vendors, following up effectively, and driving closure on actions.
• Communication skills: strong written and verbal communication in English and German (mandatory).
