Admin Assistant II Hourly

WASHINGTON COUNTY MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES INCBarre, VT
$25 - $25Onsite

About The Position

When someone walks through the doors of WCMHS — or calls our main line — you are the first person they meet. As our Administrative Assistant II, you will be the welcoming and reassuring voice that sets the tone for their experience. This role sits at the heart of day to day operations at one of our program or building locations. Front desk reception, phone and email communication are your primary focus, but you will also keep records organized, schedules running and your team supported. It is a dynamic environment calls come in, clients arrive and priorities shift. We are looking for someone who stays calm, organized and detail-focused through it all. And because you will handle sensitive information, discretion is essential: you will honor confidentiality requirements like HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2 in everything you do.
