Office Assistant (Part-time)

At Famly, we're looking for a part-time Office Assistant to join our Office Management team.
This is a hands-on role where you’ll have the opportunity for a lot of visible impact. You'll assist in keeping our Copenhagen office up to scratch and running smoothly - ready to jump into a variety of areas from daily lunch set-up and supplies orders, to light admin tasks and helping pull off our team events. 

This part-time position is based in our Copenhagen office for 2 days a week, with opportunity for covering team absences and events.

What you'll be doing

As our newest Office Assistant, you'll be joining a team of two and together you’ll work

throughout the week in tandem to support the day-to-day running of workplace operations. Things like:

• Keeping communal areas, the kitchen, and shared spaces clean, tidy, and welcoming

• Cycling the dishwashers, maintaining the coffee machines and other appliances

• Owning the daily lunch, including setup, clear up, and vendor communication

• Procuring, arranging, and caring for our office plants and greenery

• Keeping bathrooms and the kitchen topped up with toiletries, hygiene products, and cleaning supplies

• Managing grocery and office supplies orders with the team to make sure we're always stocked up 

• Taking ownership of small admin/ad-hoc projects like researching vendors, handling inventory, organising storage

• Helping coordinate practicalities for office events, networking evenings, and other fun team celebrations

You'll thrive in this role if you…

• Genuinely enjoy making the people around you feel looked after

• Are energised by moving between hands-on physical tasks and being on the computer in the same day

• Bring ideas and participate in initiatives to make the workplace feel better

• Are proactive and able to see what needs doing and feel confident to take action

• Have a sharp eye for detail and stellar organisational skills

• Are comfortable using tools like Google Workspace, Notion, or similar

• Have effective communication skills in English, both written and spoken

• Come with hands-on experience from the service industry (hospitality, retail, facilities, or similar)

At this point, we’re sure you’re wondering who Famly are...?

Well it all began when our co-founder Henrik’s daughter was ready to start at daycare. He couldn’t believe the amount of work being done on paper - and how distant he felt from his first child during the day. The paper ‘parent’ books they exchanged once a month just weren’t cutting it. Together with his friend, our co-founder and CEO Anders, they set about solving that.

These days, the 180 of us building Famly talk about trying to do two things for our many customers across the UK, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway and the US:

• Giving children the best possible start to life.

• Championing the vital work that goes into making that happen

Famly is on a mission to completely transform the childcare industry. We do that with software that brings hundreds of thousands of parents closer to their child’s day while they’re away from them. We also make financial, pedagogical, and planning tools for more than 34,000 childcare professionals, saving them hours and reducing their admin stress.

Ultimately, that gives them more time and headspace for the little ones that really matter. We’d love for you to help us make that happen.

Famly is built on transparency, less talk - more action, and making sure the person sitting next to you, rather than yourself, is the one shining. We care about each other and the work we do, and are a close knit-team of around 150 people, from many different countries, sitting across the world. No matter where we are, whether in our central Copenhagen office, Leicester, London, Berlin or Washington D.C., we like to eat lunch together every day, and celebrate with cake. Sometimes with champagne.

You’ll love working here because:

• We're all about hiring clever people who are good humans too. Famly is full of top thinkers and generous teammates waiting to help you shine.

• We give a lot of ownership: both real responsibility and the freedom to try new things.

• A belief in 'make your colleagues shine' - we break down silos, celebrate each other, and stay connected across departments and offices.

At Copenhagen HQ, you can enjoy:

• Daily lunch and a well-stocked drinks fridge (did someone say snack corner?)

• Our stunning rooftop courtyard

• Plenty of social activities - Board game nights, Friday bars, big quarterly events, team dinners, office BBQs, and more!

Interested? Let us know! We're looking to fill the position as soon as possible, so get your application in today by sending us:

• Your CV

• A short cover letter or video telling us what speaks to you about this role and what you'd bring to Famly

This is what our interview process looks like:

• Screening call with a member of our People & Talent team

• Onsite interview with the hiring manager at our Copenhagen office

• Reference check
  
  

We are looking forward to hearing from you!
