Location: Menomonie, WI

Employment Type: Full-Time, Evaluation-to-Hire Opportunity


Looking for more than a typical office assistant or receptionist job? This position combines front desk customer service, housing administration, tenant support, and regulatory compliance work in a community-focused housing organization. If you enjoy helping people, staying organized, and handling a wide variety of responsibilities, this could be an excellent long-term opportunity.

What You'll Do

• Serve as the first point of contact for visitors, applicants, tenants, and incoming phone calls
• Process housing applications and maintain tenant files
• Calculate rents and assist with occupancy-related documentation
• Prepare leases, notices, letters, work orders, and other housing documents
• Review applications and track required records and logs
• Respond professionally to resident concerns, complaints, and questions
• Maintain accurate records and support compliance with HUD, Fair Housing, state regulations, and agency policies
• Work closely with staff to support daily office operations

What Will Help You Succeed

• Strong customer service and communication skills
• Ability to remain professional during difficult conversations and conflict situations
• Reliable attendance and dependability
• Good organizational and multitasking abilities
• Computer proficiency, including Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and internet-based systems
• Experience working with diverse populations, including seniors and individuals with developmental disabilities
• Ability to learn housing regulations, policies, and internal software systems

Related Experience That May Transfer


Candidates with experience as a receptionist, administrative assistant, office assistant, housing specialist, leasing assistant, property management assistant, resident services coordinator, customer service representative, social services assistant, or case management support specialist may transition well into this role.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Stable Monday-Friday daytime schedule

• Hands-on training provided
