Office Assistant

Job Summary

We're a young and hungry, yet established and fast-growing, custom wood furniture shop seeking our first Office Assistant to support our leadership team.

• Performing data entry tasks for marketing and content organization
• Answering the phone and directing calls
• Assisting the Founder and Production Director in daily tasks
• Manage appointment scheduling and calendar coordination using Google Calendar
• Handle correspondence via email, phone, and written communication with attention to detail
• Support office management tasks including supply inventory and record keeping
• Provide customer support by addressing inquiries and resolving issues efficiently
• Maintain a clean, organized work environment to promote productivity
• Support personal assistant duties as needed
• Some sales assistance

• Strong typing skills and attention to detail for proofreading and data entry tasks
• Experience in an office setting with clerical or administrative responsibilities is preferred
• Strong computer literacy including proficiency in Google Workspace applications
• Experience with QuickBooks or bookkeeping is a plus
