• Data & Systems Administration: Perform data entry and maintain accurate records within the internal case management system.

• Facilities Coordination: Act as the point of contact for external service providers (IT support, cleaning, maintenance, etc.).

• Ad-Hoc Support: Assist other staff and take on administrative tasks as required to keep the office running smoothly.

  • Strong IT proficiency, specifically with MS Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams).

  • Typing speed of at least 40-50 wpm.

  • Experience with Practice Evolve (or a similar case/practice management system) is highly preferable but not essential.
