About us:

Olympia Computer is an M.S.P. (Managed Service Provider) in Olympia, WA. Our goal is to serve our community's I.T. needs to help them make better use of technology. We serve both residential and business clients. We are looking to hire a front desk / administrative assistant / receptionist / all around helper for our office in Downtown Olympia.

Our work environment includes:

The Position:

Front Desk / Receptionist / Administrative Assistant / All Around Helper

Join our team and be part of a dynamic and diversified office environment.

We offer:

· Competitive pay

· Opportunities for growth

· Supportive & fun work culture

· Did we mention the snacks? How about soda and energy drinks?

This is a fast-paced environment (which is why we have energy drinks) that will require you to be a self-starter, have the ability to multi-task, be able to manage jobs and the people working on them in an efficient and effective manner and take multiple directions at once. Previous experience in herding cats has shown to be a very effective skill set for this position.

You will receive priority status if you have the memory of an Elephant, the patience of a Saint and the work ethic of an Ant.

We want it all!! – A glimpse into our chaos:

• We absolutely want someone who can see a task that needs to be done and do it!
• Someone who can follow a cleaning schedule because cleaning is important.
• Someone who has an attention to detail that goes above and beyond what is expected in order to put out a quality product or provide above standard services because striving to be something better is a trait we want.

• Someone who can oversee the multiple in office jobs and out of office jobs, while keeping others on task as well.
• We want someone who can think outside of the box to solve problems as they arise, someone who knows how to think through a process from beginning to end, someone who can use speech and written text to convey their thoughts in a thorough manner.
• It is imperative that the person we hire is capable of taking direction, taking notes, taking on tasks to alleviate others, taking on responsibility, taking it upon themselves to learn as much as possible, and taking lunch orders sometimes is great too!
