Job Description

NW Houston - 77092 | Temporary Remote Through May 2027 | Future Hybrid

We're seeking a true Administrative Assistant to join a well-established educational organization supporting a small, collaborative team. This is a 6-month contract-to-hire opportunity for someone whose primary background has been providing administrative support in a professional office environment.

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

  • Excellent benefits upon permanent hire
  • Generous holiday schedule
  • Small, supportive team environment
  • Temporary remote schedule through approximately May 2027
  • Hybrid schedule planned once office renovations are complete
Schedule - Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–4:30 PM

Responsibilities
  • Provide day-to-day administrative support to department leadership and staff
  • Prepare correspondence, reports, spreadsheets, presentations, and other business documents
  • Coordinate calendars, meetings, workshops, travel arrangements, and special events
  • Process purchase orders, invoices, expense reports, and other administrative documentation
  • Maintain department files, records, and office supplies
  • Answer phones and professionally assist internal and external customers
  • Assist with special projects while ensuring deadlines are met

Qualifications
To be considered, your recent work history must include Administrative Assistant positions where administrative support was your primary responsibility.

We're specifically looking for candidates with:
  • Recent experience working as an Administrative Assistant, Executive Assistant, Department Assistant, or Senior Administrative Assistant
  • At least 2 years of dedicated administrative support experience
  • Strong Microsoft Office skills, including Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint
  • Experience preparing professional correspondence, reports, spreadsheets, and presentations
  • Experience coordinating meetings, calendars, travel, and department activities
  • Excellent organizational, communication, and multitasking skills
  • Experience processing purchase orders, invoices, budgets, or expense reports is a plus

This position is not a fit for candidates whose administrative experience was only part of another role (such as customer service, receptionist, retail, sales, HR, medical front office, warehouse, or operations).

We're looking for someone who is proactive, resourceful, and enjoys supporting others. If you don't know the answer, you'll research it, ask questions, and find a solution.


If you're a career Administrative Assistant looking for a stable opportunity with a collaborative team, we'd love to hear from you!
