Personal contacts are with County managers, employees, the general public, and other public or private sector agencies for the purpose of receiving and exchanging information, explaining procedures to facilitate a process, providing a service, or resolving program-specific problems.
NATURE AND VARIETY OF WORK
An employee in this class performs varied, detailed, and extensive administrative support work for one or more organizational units or for a designated functional area. Work involves a variety of administrative processes and methods, including the use of standard office equipment and multiple software applications to produce, develop, and review correspondence, reports, and other documents in a variety of formats. Work products support and affect the accuracy, reliability, and timeliness of office programs, services, and functions.
Work involves performing complex administrative assignments, which include relieving a superior of important administrative details and increased contact with both internal and external customers and entities.
