Teknic is looking for an entry-level Administrative Assistant to join our office in Victor, NY (about 20 minutes southeast of Rochester). No specific experience is required, but the ideal candidate will have strong listening and communication skills, an eye for detail in their work, a working knowledge of Microsoft Office, and general computer skills.
The type of person that fits in well at Teknic works hard but wants to have fun in a challenging and stimulating environment; is comfortable working without a formal company hierarchy (we have a flat management structure); and has a good sense of humor. The office is modern and bright, with many floor-to-ceiling windows, and the open-office layout helps foster teamwork and provides a lot of support for new employees as they learn their role.
As an administrative assistant, your typical day would include the following types of tasks:
- Answering incoming phone calls and assisting customers (or routing them to others when appropriate).
- Management of shared email inboxes and responding to customer inquiries appropriately.
- Using Teknic s software to confirm customer orders, view and send invoices, and more.
- Managing the company s inventory of various office items using a Kanban system and placing orders as needed.
- Occasionally assisting with preliminary assessments of prospective employees, including resume review and brief telephone screening.
- Assisting with various tasks as needed with our sales, engineering, and production departments.
This position is Monday through Friday, and we prefer candidates who can work from 9:30 am to 6:00 pm so we have phone coverage during peak call-in hours, although we will consider candidates who need slightly different hours. We also provide flexibility for things like appointments, family commitments, etc. as needed.
Compensation Package Highlights:
- Your starting salary will be $18.00 to $20.00 per hour, depending on your experience and skills.
- There is exceptional health insurance coverage for you and your family: Teknic pays 100% of the premiums, deductibles, and co-pays (meaning there is no cost to you), with immediate eligibility.
- You will get 24 days combined vacation days and holidays in your first year, with the amount increasing over time.
- For every dollar you invest in your 401(k), Teknic will add another two dollars (up to 4 percent of your salary per year). You will be eligible immediately upon hire, and all of Teknic s matching contributions are yours immediately; there is no vesting period.
