Free Word is a global meeting place for literature, argument and free thinking.

Located in the heart of Clerkenwell in London, Free Word is home to eight resident organisations and over 25 associates working across literature, literacy and free expression.

Working closely with its resident organisations and associates, Free Word hosts and runs an extensive programme of discussions, lectures, film showings, exhibitions and performances in its 90 seater-lecture theatre and event space. Encouraging debate across the worlds of culture and politics, these events give a platform to often unheard voices, opening up new perspectives and challenging official narratives. Free Word’s main hall is also a busy meeting place throughout the day complimented by a lively café.

Free Word is at an exciting stage in its development, and this is a great opportunity to be part of its expanding team. The Building Manager is a new role, working closely with the Executive Director and a small operations staff to manage the Free Word Centre building on a daily basis. The post holder will be responsible for liaising with our resident and associate organisations and external partners, as well as the health and safety, room bookings and duty management of the building, overseeing maintenance and other contracts, and office management. We need someone practical, experienced and good with people to ensure that the Free Word Centre remains a welcoming and safe place for all of our residents and visitors.
