Administrative Assitant

Confidential

Be a Key Part of the Team That Keeps Our Business Moving

Strong teams are built on strong support. We are seeking a polished, highly organized, and proactive Administrative Assistant to join our growing subcontracting company.

This is more than a traditional administrative position. It is an opportunity for a dependable, detail-oriented professional to play an important role in supporting the people, processes, and daily operations that keep our business running efficiently.

In this role, you will provide essential support across administration, human resources, and payroll. You will work closely with office staff, field employees, supervisors, and company leadership to help ensure information is accurate, deadlines are met, and day-to-day responsibilities are handled professionally.

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, communicates effectively, treats confidential information with care, and takes ownership of their work. If you enjoy creating order, staying one step ahead, and serving as a trusted resource to a busy team, we would like to hear from you.

What Youll Do

  • Provide day-to-day administrative support to leadership and internal teams.
  • Manage incoming calls, emails, and general office communications professionally and promptly.
  • Prepare letters, reports, spreadsheets, forms, and other business documents.
  • Maintain accurate and well-organized digital and paper filing systems.
  • Schedule and coordinate meetings, interviews, appointments, and other office activities.
  • Assist with additional administrative projects and operational needs as assigned.

Human Resources Support

  • Assist with employee onboarding, including preparing new-hire paperwork and coordinating onboarding activities.
  • Maintain personnel files and help ensure employee records are accurate, complete, and current.
  • Support employee record updates, HR documentation, and policy acknowledgments.
  • Coordinate pre-employment requirements, including background checks and related onboarding logistics.
  • Communicate with employees and supervisors regarding required forms, documentation, and deadlines.
  • Handle confidential employee and company information with discretion and professionalism.

Payroll and Timekeeping Support

  • Collect, review, and organize employee timesheets for payroll processing.
  • Assist with payroll data entry and verify supporting documentation for accuracy and completeness.
  • Follow up with supervisors and employees regarding missing, incomplete, or inconsistent timekeeping information.
  • Help maintain accurate payroll and timekeeping records.
  • Identify discrepancies and escalate issues promptly to the appropriate team member.

What Were Looking For

  • College degree or experience
  • At least one year of administrative assistant, office support, or related professional experience.
  • Recent graduates with relevant administrative experience are encouraged to apply.
  • Previous experience supporting human resources and/or payroll functions
  • Experience in construction, subcontracting, skilled trades, or a similar environment is a plus.
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Outlook, Word, and Excel.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong organizational, time-management, and follow-through skills.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and commitment to accuracy.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities, meet deadlines, and adapt to changing business needs.
  • Professional, dependable, resourceful, and team-oriented.
  • Sound judgment and the ability to handle sensitive and confidential information appropriately.

Why Join Us?

  • Become part of a growing company where your work has a meaningful impact.
  • Gain valuable experience across administration, human resources, payroll, and business operations.
  • Work with a team that values reliability, initiative, accountability, and professionalism.
  • Join an environment where strong performance and consistent contributions are recognized.
