This fully remote position allows you to work from home in Michigan, United States, with desk-based tasks completed through shared online systems. The position requires a 40-hour weekly commitment; working days and shift times may vary.

Qualifications

  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • No experience required; related clerical, office administration, or administrative support experience preferred.
  • Familiarity with routine office procedures, internal directories, supply requests, and the importance of checking information before completing an administrative action.
  • Ability to enter text and numbers accurately, compare details across sources, and recognize missing or inconsistent information without guessing at corrections.
  • Basic familiarity with task boards, word processing, and team messaging tools, with readiness to learn the named systems through guided practice.
  • Clear written communication for routine notices, clarification requests, progress updates, and concise task notes that colleagues can understand without additional explanation.
  • Ability to follow written instructions, prioritize assigned work, and ask the administrative team lead for guidance when requests fall outside standard procedures.
  • Availability for the 40-hour weekly commitment and agreed working days and shift times.
  • Authorization to work in the United States.
  • Fully remote work with everyday administrative duties completed from home.
  • Structured onboarding and training on the named systems and routine administrative procedures.

Responsibilities

  • Review incoming requests in a shared email inbox and task queue, identify the requested administrative action, and check whether essential instructions are included.
  • Check employee names, department details, requested quantities, and completion dates against available internal references before entering or updating routine task information.
  • Enter approved office supply requests and internal directory changes using established procedures, checking each entry against the original request before submitting it.
  • Track assigned requests in a project management platform such as Trello, recording ownership, current status, outstanding questions, and the next action needed.
  • Prepare routine internal notices from approved templates using a word processor such as Microsoft Word, checking spelling, formatting, and contact details before review.
  • Send concise clarification requests when information is missing, explain what is needed, and note the response so another colleague can understand the task.
  • Coordinate routine handoffs through a team collaboration platform such as Slack, directing questions to the appropriate department contact without changing the original request.
  • Follow up on unanswered requests and approaching due dates, updating the task queue when a response arrives or the expected completion changes.
  • Escalate conflicting instructions, duplicate requests, access problems, or actions outside established procedures to the administrative team lead before making unsupported changes.
  • Close completed tasks with clear outcome notes; quality is judged through entry accuracy, turnaround, complete notes, and consistent follow-up on unresolved items.
