Summary:

This role enters and checks business information in spreadsheets and databases. Accurate entries help internal teams use consistent information for everyday decisions and routine reporting.

Job Responsibilities:

• Check submitted information for missing fields, duplicate entries, inconsistent dates, and unclear values before entering changes into the designated spreadsheet or database.
• Enter text and numeric information using a spreadsheets and data entry tool such as Microsoft Excel, following established column formats and field instructions.
• Update approved entries in a database application such as Microsoft Access, matching each change to the correct existing entry and source reference.
• Compare completed entries against supplied information, checking spelling, decimal placement, reference codes, and required fields before marking the work ready for review.
• Ask request owners to clarify incomplete or conflicting details, record the question, and hold uncertain changes rather than guessing or substituting information.
• Follow up on unanswered questions through the shared queue and escape unresolved discrepancies or access problems to the data entry team lead.
• Maintain clear task notes showing completed changes, outstanding questions, source references, and the next action needed so colleagues can continue the work.
• Apply corrections identified by quality reviewers, recheck affected entries, and flag recurring input errors to the team lead for clearer instructions.
• Close completed requests and provide status updates; quality is judged by accuracy, turnaround, complete notes, and timely follow-up on outstanding items.

Qualifications:

• High school diploma or equivalent.
• About 1-2 years of data entry or related administrative experience preferred, including entering numeric and text information into shared business systems.
• Familiarity with spreadsheet columns, cell formats, sorting, filtering, and basic checks that help identify missing values and duplicate entries.
• Understanding of database tables, required fields, and matching reference codes when locating and updating existing entries without changing unrelated information.
• Accurate alphanumeric entry, touch typing, and numeric keypad skills, with a consistent habit of comparing finished work against the supplied source.
• Clear written communication for requesting clarification, explaining discrepancies, and leaving concise task notes that other team members can understand.
• Ability to follow established instructions, protect internal information, and raise questions when a requested change falls outside the assigned task.
• A reliable computer, high-speed internet, and quiet private workspace, plus availability for the 40-hour weekly commitment and agreed working days and shift times.
• Authorization to work in the United States.
