As a Junior Office Project Manager with a focus on workplace projects within our Office Management team, you will support high-impact initiatives that shape how Partners Group operates day to day—from office openings and upgrades to relocations. Working across a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, you will help translate business needs into well-structured plans and deliver outcomes on time in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment. This is a hands-on role with meaningful ownership, broad exposure across the firm, and a strong learning curve, with opportunities to embed responsible and sustainable workplace practices.

- Support the set-up of operations for the firm’s serviced apartments (opening planned for 2030), including vendor coordination, processes and readiness planning.
- Build and maintain project plans (scope, milestones, dependencies, risks), and track progress against timelines and deliverables.
- Drive stakeholder coordination across Office Management, IT, external consultants, contractors, landlords, and service providers - ensuring decisions and actions are closed on time.
- Prepare meeting agendas, project updates, decision logs, and executive-ready status reporting; proactively follow up on open actions.
- Track budgets, documentation, approvals, and project governance materials (minutes, decisions, plans, handover packs)
- Ensure smooth transitions from project delivery into steady-state operations, including handover documentation and operational playbooks.
- Experience: 3–5 years of project coordination/project management experience, ideally in office/workplace projects (e.g., fit-out, move, office opening, facilities-related projects)
- Project management fundamentals: practical experience in creating and maintaining project plans, task lists, timelines, and status reporting (RAID / action logs)
- Stakeholder management: proven ability to coordinate with multiple stakeholders and vendors, following up effectively, and driving closure on actions
- Communication skills: strong written and verbal communication in English (business fluent) and German (highly desirable);
- Tooling: confident user of Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, and at least one project/task tool (e.g., MS Project, Smartsheet, Monday.com, Asana, Jira, Trello)
- Operational reliability: strong attention to detail, documentation discipline, and ability to manage multiple workstreams in a high-paced environment
- Entrepreneurial mindset with curiosity to build new approaches, processes or services in a structured way
