I am pondering my next career steps and basically, I love working with people.

A current colleague of mine randomly mentioned that he could see me doing this type of role so I wondered if anyone knew much about it

I've done a bit of research and it does appeal however I have no direct experience so perhaps I won't be able to go directly into this type of role...maybe something a bit less senior?

I'd say "Office Manager" is way too vague of a description. A lot will depend on responsibilities of the role, size of office/number of employees etc etc.

You could be in charge of a big office with hundreds of employees and many responsibilities. Versus a single unit/3 person office where you might have very little responsibility.

Mm I've heard it can vary from arranging the stationary to events for the business, team bonding/morale activities, scheduling etc.

Guess it varies from business to business as you say.
 
Appreciate all the insights, thank you.

I am not totally sure however I'll check jobs specs as you're all right - the role may vary depending on the business.
