In this role, you will provide essential support across administration, HR, and payroll, while partnering closely with office staff, field employees, supervisors, and leadership. We are seeking someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, communicates professionally, handles confidential information with care, and brings a strong sense of ownership to their work.

  • Provide day-to-day administrative support to leadership and internal teams
  • Manage incoming calls, emails, and general office communication in a professional and timely manner

  • Help coordinate pre-employment processes such as background checks and onboarding logistics
  • Collect, review, and organize employee timesheets for payroll processing
  • Assist with payroll data entry and verify supporting documentation for accuracy
  • Follow up with supervisors and employees on missing or incomplete timekeeping information
  • Handle confidential employee and company information with discretion and professionalism

  • Experience in a subcontractor, trades, or similar environment is a plus
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Outlook, Word, and Excel
  • Excellent communication, organizational, and time management skills
  • Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy
  • Ability to multitask, prioritize effectively, and meet deadlines
  • Professional, dependable, and team-oriented
  • Comfortable handling sensitive and confidential information
