Part-Time Office Assistant

Description

Are you someone who thrives on keeping things organized, welcoming, and running smoothly behind the scenes? Do you enjoy creating a positive office environment while supporting the day-to-day needs of a growing team?

IdeaTek is looking for a Part-Time Office Assistant to support our Wichita office. In this role, you'll help maintain a professional, organized, and welcoming workspace for employees, visitors, and vendors. From managing supplies and coordinating office needs to supporting employee events and keeping shared spaces running efficiently, you'll play an important role in the overall employee experience.

This is a part-time, on-site opportunity based in our Wichita office.

A Day in the Life

You'll start your day opening and preparing the office for employees and visitors-checking shared spaces, organizing incoming mail, and making sure supplies are stocked and ready for the day ahead.

Throughout the day, you'll greet guests, assist with deliveries, coordinate office needs, and support general office operations. Some days may involve organizing catering for meetings or helping prepare for employee events, while others may focus on keeping the office running smoothly behind the scenes. No matter the task, you'll help create a positive and professional environment for everyone who walks through the door.

What You'll Do

Key responsibilities include:

• Greet and welcome guests and visitors with a friendly and professional attitude 
• Maintain guest logs and building access records as needed 
• Support office security by following safety procedures and monitoring visitor access 
• Report maintenance issues and coordinate repairs with building management 
• Manage incoming and outgoing mail, deliveries, and packages 
• Establish and maintain an organized system for Wichita office mail and distribution 
• Order, monitor, and maintain office and kitchen supplies 
• Help keep shared office spaces clean, stocked, and presentable 
• Coordinate catering and support logistics for meetings and events as needed 
• Manage vendor relationships related to office beverages and supplies 
• Assist with employee engagement activities, event planning, and after-hours events when needed 
• Provide general office and administrative support across teams 

What Will Help You Stand Out

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience supporting office operations in a professional environment 
• Experience coordinating events, catering, or employee engagement activities 
• Strong multitasking skills and ability to prioritize changing needs 
• Experience working with vendors or facilities coordination 

Desired Attributes

Beyond the qualifications, these attributes are what make someone a great fit for our team:

• Proactive - You anticipate office needs before they become problems 
• Welcoming - You create a positive experience for employees and visitors alike
