Summary

The Administrative Assistant provides administrative and operational support to the Claims department, helping leaders and team members stay organized, connected, and focused on their priorities.

This role is ideal for someone who is highly organized, proactive, comfortable with technology, and able to navigate a fast-moving environment.

  • Maintain department supplies, anticipate future needs, and coordinate ordering.
  • Capture meeting notes, decisions, and follow-up items as needed.
  • Organize information, documentation, and department resources to help ensure materials are accurate and accessible.
  • Support projects and Claims initiatives by coordinating activities, tracking details, and assisting with follow-up.
  • Serve as a knowledgeable resource for administrative processes and office operations.
  • Handle confidential, sensitive, and time-critical information with discretion.
  • Identify opportunities to improve organization, communication, and administrative processes.
  • Perform additional department-specific responsibilities as needed.

Qualifications

  • 3 or more years of administrative, executive support, office coordination, or related experience.
  • High school diploma or equivalent required; college coursework preferred.
  • Intermediate proficiency with Microsoft Office, including Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
  • Comfortable learning and working across a variety of technology platforms and business systems.
  • Strong organizational, planning, and time-management skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to adapt to changing priorities, processes, and business needs.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy and follow-through.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with leaders and team members.
  • Ability to exercise discretion when working with confidential or sensitive information.

What Success Looks Like

You anticipate needs, stay organized, communicate clearly, and adjust quickly when circumstances shift. You are comfortable learning new processes and technology, asking the right questions, and helping create stability and organization during periods of change.

You take ownership of the details while understanding how your work helps the broader Claims organization operate effectively.
