Part-Time Administrative Assistant

Job Summary

We are seeking a self-motivated, part-time Administrative Assistant to support the daily operations of Nedd & Joi, a growing small business. This person will be a flexible generalist who helps keep things running smoothly across the company — tracking orders, organizing files, answering phones, printing labels, and supporting customers.

This is an entry-level position with training provided, ideal for someone who is comfortable on a computer, eager to learn, and able to work independently with minimal supervision once trained. The role offers a flexible part-time schedule and a real opportunity to grow as the company expands — including taking on more responsibility and helping coordinate the work of others over time.

• Track orders from placement through delivery, including window-covering (shutter and blind) orders

• Answer and route incoming phone calls professionally
• Respond to basic customer inquiries, follow up on orders, and support outreach efforts
• Manage incoming emails and messages related to products and orders
• Maintain accurate records of customer interactions, orders, and basic sales activity
• Support data entry, document updates, and internal tracking in Excel
• Communicate clearly and professionally with customers and team members
• Work independently to complete assigned tasks with minimal supervision once trained
• Identify opportunities to improve organization and workflow efficiency

Experience & Skills

• No prior administrative experience required — training provided
• Bilingual English/Spanish — required
• Strong computer skills — confident using email, the internet, and common office software
• Working understanding of Microsoft Excel
• Familiarity with Adobe Illustrator (a plus)
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
