Front Desk Associate

We’re hiring a Front Desk Associate for our Kansas City office. This is a full-time, in-person position for someone who enjoys interacting with people, keeping things organised and helping with the day-to-day running of a workplace. Previous front desk experience is helpful, but not essential, as training will be provided.

The Role

You’ll be the first point of contact for visitors and incoming enquiries, while also helping colleagues with general office tasks. The day can involve a mix of reception duties, scheduling and administrative support, so being comfortable switching between tasks is important.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Welcoming visitors, signing them in and notifying the relevant staff member of their arrival
• Answering incoming calls, taking messages and directing enquiries
• Managing meeting room bookings and helping keep appointments on schedule
• Checking general inboxes and passing requests to the appropriate person
• Receiving mail, deliveries and courier collections
• Updating visitor logs, contact lists and other office records
• Preparing meeting spaces and ensuring reception areas are presentable
• Ordering stationery and keeping track of everyday office supplies
• Assisting with document preparation, filing and other administrative duties
• Helping colleagues with routine requests to keep daily operations running smoothly

What You’ll Bring

You don’t need to have worked on a front desk before. Experience in reception, retail, hospitality or administration can be useful, but we’re also open to candidates looking to move into an office-based role.

We’re looking for someone who is approachable, dependable and comfortable communicating with different people throughout the day. You should also have basic computer skills, good attention to detail and the ability to manage tasks without losing track of priorities.

The Practical Details

• Location: Kansas City, MO
• Employment type: Full-time, on-site
• Training: Provided when you start
• Work environment: Office-based, with regular interaction with visitors and colleagues

You’ll receive support while learning the office procedures and systems, with opportunities to build experience in reception, administration and professional communication.
