  • Serve as a backup receptionist and assist with front desk coverage as needed.
  • Support remote legal staff with administrative tasks such as printing, scanning, shipping, and file uploads.
  • Regularly walk through the office to check on needs and maintain open communication with staff.
  • Assist in planning and executing occasional special events or meetings for clients and internal departments.
  • Maintain office supplies, ensure copiers and printers are stocked, and manage vendor relationships.
  • Perform all other administrative and support duties as assigned.

Qualifications:

Minimum Requirements:

  • Prior experience in an office, administrative, customer service, or support role
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Confident and self-sufficient with a “how can I help?” attitude
  • Basic technical aptitude and willingness to troubleshoot minor IT issues
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs occasionally (e.g., FedEx boxes or equipment, with handtruck available)
  • Must successfully pass a background check and conflicts check

Preferred:

  • Familiarity with professional office environments (legal industry experience not required)
  • Prior exposure to facilities or office services tasks
  • Experience with hospitality, receptionist, or mailroom duties

Ideal Candidate Traits:

  • Friendly, approachable, and dependable
  • Proactive with a sense of ownership
  • Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively
  • Calm under pressure and solution-oriented
  • Willing to jump in wherever needed and adapt to a dynamic environment

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys variety in their workday and thrives in a supportive, professional office environment.
