Job description

We are looking for a motivated Administrative Assistant who wants to break into project management and build real responsibility quickly. This is not a passive admin role. You will work directly with experienced project leaders, gain exposure to client-facing work, and learn how complex appraisal-related projects move from kickoff to completion.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love solving problems, and take pride in getting the details right, this could be the right launchpad for you.

What You Will Do

Own the Details That Drive Projects Forward

• Maintain project schedules and trackers using tools like Monday.com
• Update key milestones including hearings, trial dates, and deadlines
• Coordinate kickoff meetings and wrap-up sessions
• Track progress and help keep projects on schedule

Build and Manage Critical Documentation

• Organize hearing and trial documents (digital and physical files)
• Collect and manage documentation from clients and vendors
• Ensure project files are complete, accurate, and easy to access

Support Communication Across Teams

• Facilitate communication between project managers, analysts, appraisers, and support staff
• Prepare meeting agendas, capture action items, and track follow-ups
• Help compile debrief notes and identify process improvements

Develop Technical Project Skills

• Assist with deed plots and KMZ files using Google Earth and survey data
• Gather data for project reporting including budget updates and milestones
• Learn and follow structured project management processes

Who Thrives Here

This role is ideal for someone who:

• Wants a long-term path into project management
• Is highly organized and detail oriented
• Communicates clearly and professionally
• Can manage multiple priorities without losing accuracy
• Enjoys accountability and being trusted with real responsibility

What You Bring

• Strong organizational skills
• 4 year degree preferred
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
• Exposure to project management tools or principles is a plus
• Experience in a professional office setting

Why This Role Is Different

You will not be siloed. You will see how strategy turns into execution. You will learn directly from experienced professionals. And you will build foundational skills that translate into a future Project Manager role.

If you are motivated, coachable, and ready to step into a role where your work truly matters, we would love to hear from you.
