Office Manager

Overview

Keenan Recruitment has been retained to recruit for an Office Manager in Belfast City Centre. Let’s cut to the chase: this isn’t your average Office Manager role. We’re partnering with an award-winning, design-led architectural practice based in the heart of Belfast City Centre, and they’re looking for an experienced Office Manager who thrives on structure, people, and making things run like clockwork—while still leaving room for creativity and fresh thinking.

This is a part-time opportunity (3–4 days per week), ideal for someone who wants meaningful work, autonomy, and balance—without sacrificing impact.

As the Office Manager, you’ll be the operational backbone of the practice. Calm, organised, and commercially switched on, you’ll keep the studio running smoothly so the architects can focus on what they do best - designing exceptional spaces.

You’ll have real ownership of the role and the freedom to bring new ideas to the table. No micromanagement. No corporate red tape. Just trust, collaboration, and mutual respect.

• Overseeing day-to-day office operations and being the go-to person for the studio
• Managing accounts and finances using Xero (this is essential)
• Handling invoicing, expenses, and liaising with external accountants
• General staff support
• Coordinating suppliers, facilities, and office systems
• Keeping everything running efficiently and compliantly

• An experienced Office Manager, ideally from a professional services or creative environment
• Confident using Xero and comfortable managing financial admin independently
• Organised, proactive, and commercially aware
• A natural communicator who enjoys working with people
• Someone who likes to improve processes, not just maintain them
• Looking for a flexible, part-time role with purpose and longevity

• Flexible working: 3–4 days per week
• A collaborative, innovative, and design-focused culture
• Beautiful Central Belfast location
• A trusted, autonomous role with real influence
• The chance to be part of a firm that genuinely values its people

If you’re an Office Manager who enjoys variety, responsibility, and working in a forward-thinking environment—this role is well worth a conversation.
