• Venue Scheduling, Allocation & Calendar Governance

  • Act as the primary operational owner for on‑site event space bookings, configuration logic, and venue availability across all office spaces.

  • Own the master venue calendar—applying clear judgment and prioritization rules to resolve complex booking conflicts independently and transparently.

  • Evaluate event briefs and advise organizers on optimal room sizes, split‑room layouts, and capacity limits, recommending usage guidelines to ensure safety and ideal space utilization.

  • Ensure end‑to‑end operational briefs (layout, AV specs, access/security, catering/drinks, timing, and cleaning reset) are fully captured and vetted prior to event approval.

  • Monitor booking data and space usage trends to identify operational bottlenecks. Own, refine and redefine the event support helpdesk system—continuously optimizing request workflows, tracking service SLAs, and driving process improvements to streamline how Wisers request event space support.

• Design, maintain, and continuously refine operational playbooks and checklists for recurring event formats to drive consistent delivery standards across the team.

• On‑site team leadership (Porter team)

  • Line manages the porter team, ensuring clear daily/weekly planning, task allocation, and coverage for peaks (including early/late support when needed).

  • Plan for scaling the team based on business needs as the new building opens: workflow design, role clarity, and readiness standards.

  • Manage the vendor and relationship directly with the business partner.

• Partner effectively with Wiser organisers while maintaining clear boundaries of responsibility (Workplace logistics vs organiser‑owned content/comms).

• Coordinate with Security for external attendee access requirements and on‑site…
