This role sits at the heart of an exciting new venture between Jameel Motors and GAC, established to introduce the AION range of intelligent electric vehicles to the UK market.

Following AION’s successful UK launch earlier this year, we are now focused on growing our operations, expanding our dealer network and building the foundations for long-term success. As part of this journey, we are looking for an experienced Office Manager to help keep our business running smoothly and support our next phase of growth.

• Manage the day-to-day running of the office, including facilities, suppliers, equipment, office supplies and visitor management.
• Coordinate employee onboarding, recruitment administration and general people-related processes.
• Provide administrative support to the Managing Director and wider leadership team, including meetings, travel and expenses.
• Organise internal meetings, events and visits from international colleagues, ensuring a professional and welcoming experience.
• Maintain accurate records, support internal communications and take ownership of operational projects and business support activities as the company grows.

• Previous experience in an Office Manager, Executive Assistant, Business Support or similar role within an SME or growing business.
• Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple priorities and work independently.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills, with confidence working with senior stakeholders, colleagues and external suppliers.
