There are still lots of open positions. Let's find the one that's right for you.
The Temporary Office Support position at Southern Oregon University is part of a pooled recruitment effort, meaning that applicants are not applying for a specific role but rather for potential temporary appointments that may arise on an as-needed basis. These appointments are part-time and limited-duration, with a maximum of 1040 hours allowed within a 12-month period. The nature of the work can vary significantly, encompassing general office, clerical, and secretarial support across different departments within the university. As such, the specific classification, salary, and length of each appointment will differ based on the needs of the hiring department. The role is designed to provide essential administrative support, which may include tasks such as filing documents, answering phones, processing incoming and outgoing mail, and maintaining office supplies. Employees in this position will follow established procedures and guidelines, with direct supervision provided initially until they become familiar with their tasks. Once trained, employees will work more independently, applying their judgment and initiative to complete assignments. The position is categorized under the Support Staff - Hourly job family group and is classified as non-exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). This means that employees in this role are eligible for overtime pay. The work environment is primarily on-campus, and while the position does not offer benefits, it provides valuable experience in a university setting. Applicants will be required to undergo a criminal background check as part of the hiring process, and they must maintain a valid driver’s license. The university does not sponsor visas for this position, and applicants must be prepared to work additional hours as needed, including occasional emergency calls to work.
