Full-Time Administrative Assistant

Full-Time Administrative Assistant at DM Estate Staffing

Fully Remote (West Coast Based)

40 hours per week guaranteed: Monday-Friday, 9:00 am-5:30 pm PT

DM Estate Staffing is a boutique private household and family office staffing firm serving clients nationwide. We make long-term matches between exceptional private service professionals and the families they serve, and we care deeply about doing it well. We are looking for a full-time Administrative Assistant to support our recruiting team and keep the details of our business running smoothly.

This role is the backbone of our daily operations. You will be the friendly first point of contact for many of our candidates, the steady hand behind our documents and reports, and the person who makes sure nothing falls through the cracks. You will often work in partnership with our long-term East Coast- based Administrative Assistant, so a partnership mentality is key. We are looking for someone cheery and vibrant who can make every candidate feel valued and heard, even when we may not have an open role for them at the moment, and who is equally sharp and polished when conducting reference calls.

Tech-savvy is essential. Our days involve scheduling, formatting documents, populating spreadsheets, pulling data, updating files, and working on a variety of platforms, including Slack, DocuSign, Adobe, Google Suite, Mailchimp, WordPress, and iCIMS. You must be exceptionally organized and comfortable in a fast-paced environment, with the ability to quickly pivot between tasks. Ideally, you understand our niche industry and bring strong administrative experience, discretion, and real pride in follow-through.

This is a fully remote role; however, we are looking for someone based on the West Coast who is able to work West Coast business hours.

Qualifications:

Compensation:
