• Adapt to shifting priorities and support various departments with administrative projects, cross-training, and special assignments.
• Participate in training with directors and other team members to build knowledge across office support functions.
• Support a work schedule of Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with willingness to assist during occasional overtime periods.
• Perform duties that may require periods of standing while handling mail, copying, shipping, or other office support activities.• Prior experience in an administrative, office support, or assistant role within a business environment that values attention to detail.
• Ability to manage copying, mailing, shipping, and other general office operations independently.
• Strong data entry skills with a high level of accuracy and organization.
• Comfortable answering inbound calls and providing clear internal and external communication.
• Adaptability and willingness to support changing business needs and cross-functional administrative tasks.
• Familiarity with Microsoft-based office tools, including SharePoint and Azure, is preferred.
• Ability to work largely in a partner-facing support capacity with limited client interaction.
• Availability for occasional overtime and ability to remain productive in an hourly position.
