Office manager

A comparatively recent career option, the role of an office manager is probably best summed up as a “super assistant”. Whether in a small business or large cooperation, they support company bosses and teams with a wide range of tasks, ensuring the office runs as smoothly as possible. Versatility is a must!

Fun fact

Office managers have to juggle lots of documents every day. Who comes to their aid? The trusty paperclip, of course. These little metallic tools have a vague and contested history. One hypothesis claims they come from Norway. And while their origin may be disputed, that didn’t stop the Norwegians making them a national symbol of resistance during Nazi occupation. Paperclips were worn proudly on your jacket as a sign of unity and resistance, even though it could lead to your arrest. Who knew paperclips could be so heroic!
