Required Qualifications
This is a full-time position (40 hours per week) with an hourly wage of $21.64/hour. Generous personal leave and benefits package, including paid time off, paid sabbatical, health, vision and dental insurance, 401k with a company match, life and disability insurance.
This position is currently 80% remote / 20% in-office** and will be full-time in office once it is safe to fully return to working onsite.
*Facilities duties are largely curbed during the pandemic due to lack of in-office staffing but will resume once our staff re-enter the offices for regular work.
**Worksite information during the COVID-19 Pandemic: Currently, our offices are closed, except for a few key services that we provide, and our staff are largely working from home. Due to some unique duties of the Operations Coordinator, which must be accomplished in-person, this position works approximately 20% in-office at our Seattle Location. This means a frequency of working in the offices ~1-2 days per week with occasional additional in-office visits to meet vendors or assist with in-person special projects. We are dedicated to maintaining a safe work environment with robust pandemic protocols, PPE supplies and ample space for our staff to work safely alone, if their position requires in-office work.
