Front Office Coordinator / Guest Service Agent

Location: Munich

Who we are

The role

As a Front Office Coordinator / Guest Service Agent, you will be the welcoming face of Helsing and the backbone of our daily office operations. Working closely within the Workplace team, you’ll host guests, customers, and candidates, oversee visitor access and security passes, and ensure meetings start seamlessly on time and in the right room. Beyond the front desk, you will manage mail, deliveries, and our company vehicle fleet, while providing the administrative support that keeps a busy site running calmly. This is a role with real ownership: the quality of a visitor's first hour at Helsing, and the smoothness of everyone else's working day, rests in your hands.

The day-to-day

• Welcome and host visitors, customers and candidates, handling check-in, registration and visitor badges so every guest is signed in, briefed and looked after within minutes of arrival

• Coordinate meeting rooms, calendars and hospitality for interviews, customer visits and leadership sessions, resolving clashes before they reach the diary

• Run the reception area as the front door of the site, keeping access procedures, sign-in records and security passes accurate and audit-ready

• Manage incoming and outgoing post, couriers and deliveries, routing confidential and time-sensitive items to the right team the same day

• Administer the company vehicle fleet, from bookings and servicing to documentation, so cars are available, compliant and roadworthy when colleagues need them

You should apply if you

• Relevant experience in a front-of-house, hospitality, or reception role, with a passion for welcoming and hosting visitors

• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities calmly, from room bookings to deliveries, without losing sight of the details

• High degree of discretion and integrity when dealing with confidential information and managing building/access procedures

• A proactive mindset and high accountability, coupled with the ability to quickly adapt to new tools, systems, and processes

• Fluency in both German and English (written and spoken), and professional communication skills across all channels (in person, phone, email)

Note: We operate in an industry where women, as well as other minority groups, are systematically under-represented. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet all the listed qualifications; ability and impact cannot be summarised in a few bullet points.

Nice to Have

• Completed vocational training in a commercial field or hotel management, or equivalent practical grounding in hospitality

• Familiarity with visitor management, access control or fleet administration tools in a security-conscious environment
