Job Description

Do you have great reception or office assistant experience but want to be more in control of your time and when you work?


We’re looking for temporary receptionists, both those who value temping as a standalone career and also those who are interested in contract-to-hire opportunities.


ABOUT US

At Joss Search, we specialize in recruiting business support professionals into the Private Equity and Alternative Investments sector. Our clients make up the world’s leading global private equity, alternative investment, and financial consultancy firms, and many of our clients are looking to expand their pool of temporary workers.


THE ROLE

Our clients are looking for temp receptionists who are willing to jump into temporary assignments and hit the ground running! These roles range from a few days to a few months or even more than a year ongoing.


This opportunity could mean regular work within the same company, getting to know the teams and systems well, and gaining a deeper understanding of the business and the people who work there.


This is the perfect position if you are looking for some consistency of a full-time position but the flexibility that comes with a temporary role.


Key responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Greeting guests
  • Answering the phones and responding to emails
  • Communicating with appropriate hosts and ensuring a seamless running of the office
  • Managing the scheduling of conference rooms
  • Inventory management of office supplies and snacks


THE BENEFITS

  • Hourly rates between $20/hr - $30/hr based on experience
  • Opportunities for short and long-term contract assignments
  • Flexibility in creating your own schedule
  • Paid training days
  • Free breakfasts and lunches are included by many of our clients


THE CANDIDATE

  • The ideal candidate will be personable, communicative, friendly, and have great customer service skills and experience.
  • Previous experience within a professional services firm and corporate setting
  • Previous experience as a receptionist or administrator within financial services is preferred


At Joss Search, we believe in finding the perfect candidates for our clients as well as the perfect clients for our candidates. If you like the sound of this fantastic opportunity and enjoy working in the heart of New York City, then apply now, we can’t wait to meet you!


Joss Search is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer, passionately supporting and promoting equality, diversity and inclusion. We are committed to building an inclusive culture, respecting our individual differences, and bringing our community together.
