What does an asset coordinator do?

An asset coordinator is in charge of coordinating the efforts to manage a company's digital assets, ensuring its efficient and secured storage. Among their responsibilities include gathering and organizing data, developing storage and distribution techniques, updating databases, archiving and curating files, coordinating with staff, and keeping abreast with the latest storage techniques and innovations. They must also monitor the progress of operations while enforcing the company's safety policies and regulations. Moreover, an asset coordinator must maintain an active communication line with staff for a smooth and efficient workflow.

What does an office manager do?

Office managers oversee the entire workplace. They maintain office processes and services to ensure that everything is running well. They manage office supplies by managing inventory and procurement procedures. They also device filing systems, create needed and relevant office policies, and ensure that all the policies are being followed. As a way to make sure that the office is in top shape, office managers supervise most of the logistical aspects inside the office. They also provide support to both management teams and the rest of the employees. They often act as the bridge between the two and would sometimes even assist in the training of new employees.
