Support Operations & Reporting

  • Prepare and maintain reports on records activity, inventory, and performance metrics

  • Maintain accurate documentation for audits and operational tracking

  • Contribute to process improvement initiatives, digitization efforts, and special projects

  • Stay current on records management best practices and information governance standards

What You Bring

  • Prior experience leading a team of at least 3–5 employees in a records, document control, or operational environment

  • Strong working knowledge of records management principles, retention, and compliance standards

  • Proven ability to balance hands-on execution with team leadership responsibilities

  • Experience supporting matter mobility initiatives within legal or corporate environments preferred

  • Familiarity with records and information governance systems such as FileTrail, LegalKEY, iComply, and iManage strongly preferred

  • Exceptional attention to detail, organization, and problem-solving skills

  • Strong communication skills with a customer-focused mindset

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, service-driven environment

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and records management or electronic filing systems

Qualifications

  • High school diploma or equivalent required; associate or bachelor’s degree preferred

  • 2–3+ years of experience in records management, information governance, or related operations

  • Supervisory or team leadership experience required

  • Relevant certifications (records management, compliance, or information governance) are a plus

The Compensation range for this role is up to $40.00/hr. Actual compensation within that range will be dependent upon the individual's location, skills, experience and qualifications.
