Administrative Coordinator

Company Overview
The Sisters of St. Joseph is a community of women religious, called "Sisters", who are dedicated to serving God and dear neighbor. Our lay staff (who are non-Sisters) have various roles in the organization that help to support retired Sisters and those engaged in their ministries, ensuring that our Sisters can focus on their mission through the vital contributions of our staff.

We’re a private, non-profit religious organization that emphasizes caring for one another and seeing the best in ourselves and others.

We welcome individuals from all backgrounds and embrace the uniqueness that each individual has to offer. We recognize and respect that our staff may not adhere to a practice of faith; however, each staff member is responsible for serving in their respective role faithfully to support our Sisters in fulfilling their mission.

You bring the heart and we provide on-the-job training in a supportive environment.
