Home & Office Assistant – Part-Time - Santa Clarita -Spanish Speaking A Plus

Are You the Person Who Just Gets Things Done? If you're the person who notices the return sitting by the door, remembers that birthday cards need to go out, can update a spreadsheet without being intimidated by it, and has already researched three caterers before someone has to remind you, we should probably meet. StarChild Interventions is looking for a dependable, upbeat, highly organized Home \& Office Assistant to support two members of our leadership team from their home office in the Sand Canyon area of Santa Clarita. This is not your typical administrative assistant position. On one day, you may be updating company trackers, preparing employee badges, mailing reports to families, and helping with employee onboarding. On another, you may be researching caterers for a company event, making an Amazon return, finding wallpaper samples for a home project, watering outdoor plants, or taking our very friendly Goldendoodle for a walk. We need someone who can comfortably move between the two worlds. The ideal person enjoys creating order, figuring things out, checking things off a list, and eventually learning us and our systems well enough to see what needs to be done before we have to ask. What You'll Help With Your primary responsibilities will support StarChild Interventions and may include: Updating weekly and monthly productivity trackers and caseload spreadsheets Reviewing information across spreadsheets for accuracy Updating learner and insurance rosters Preparing and mailing reports to learner families Creating and mailing new learner folders/notebooks Creating and mailing employee badges Coordinating monthly learner birthday cards Coordinating employee birthday and anniversary recognition Assisting with new\-hire onboarding tasks Scheduling annual employee reviews Researching community outreach opportunities and helping coordinate participation Assisting with company events, including researching vendors, caterers, venues, supplies, and other logistics Preparing files, labels, mailings, and other administrative materials Communicating professionally by email with employees, vendors, and other contacts Helping coordinate printing and other outside vendors Handling other administrative and organizational projects as needed Because this position is based in a home office, you'll also occasionally help keep life outside the office organized. That may include: Organizing and tidying spaces Handling returns and occasional local errands Researching household products, services, vendors, and projects Helping coordinate household vendors Watering outdoor plants Assisting with party and event preparation Walking our friendly Goldendoodle during your shift Tackling the random projects that inevitably land on a busy family's to\-do list To be clear: this is not a housekeeping position. We are looking for someone who enjoys organization, coordination, research, problem\-solving, and helping things run smoothly. The Person We're Looking For You don't necessarily need years of personal\-assistant experience. We're much more interested in finding the right person. You'll probably thrive here if you are: Positive, upbeat, and pleasant to work alongside Exceptionally reliable and punctual Organized and detail\-oriented Proactive—you notice what needs attention Comfortable taking ownership of a project and figuring out the next step Teachable and receptive to feedback Flexible when priorities change Resourceful and good at researching solutions Comfortable asking questions while you're learning Able to work independently once you've learned a process Professional and thoughtful in written communication Comfortable working in an active family/home\-office environment Friendly and comfortable around children and dogs Someone who takes pride in doing a job well rather than simply doing the minimum Taking initiative is a big deal to us. In the beginning, we want you to ask questions and keep us in the loop so we can make sure we're on the same page. As trust develops, we'd love for you to become the person who can say, “I noticed this needed to be handled, so I researched it, here are the options, and here's what I recommend we do next.” Technology \& Office Skills You should be comfortable with: Google Drive Google Docs Excel and spreadsheets Data entry and maintaining accurate records Email and professional written communication General office technology, printers, scanners, and online research Experience with ChatGPT, Claude, Canva, Avery templates/labels, or similar tools is a plus. We are happy to teach our specific processes and systems, but you should already be reasonably tech\-savvy and comfortable learning new tools. Confidentiality Is Essential This position will have access to confidential business, employee, and client information, including protected medical information. You must demonstrate excellent judgment, discretion, and the ability to maintain strict confidentiality and follow SCI's privacy and HIPAA\-related procedures at all times. Trust is an essential part of this position. Our Work Environment This position is primarily based in our home and home office in the Sand Canyon area of Santa Clarita. This is an active family home. Family members may be home during working hours, and both members of the leadership team you support frequently work from the home office. We also have a very friendly Goldendoodle who will be excited to meet you. Part of your regular responsibilities will include taking him for a walk, so you must be comfortable around dogs. You should also be comfortable moving throughout a large property and occasionally lifting or carrying packages, file boxes, supplies, or storage bins weighing up to approximately 20 pounds. Transportation Reliable transportation and a valid driver's license are required. Occasional local errands may be necessary. When using your personal vehicle for approved work\-related errands, applicable work time and mileage will be reimbursed in accordance with company policy. Schedule The initial schedule is: Tuesday, Wednesday \& Thursday 9:00 AM–2:00 PM Approximately 15 hours per week. These hours are currently fixed, so please apply only if you can reliably commit to this schedule. For the right person, there is potential for additional hours, responsibilities, and professional growth over time. Compensation \& Growth The starting rate is $19\.00/hour for the introductory 90\-day period, increasing to $20\.00/hour following successful completion of the 90\-day period. This is a W\-2 position through StarChild Interventions. Medical, dental, and 401(k) benefits are offered subject to applicable plan eligibility requirements. We are looking for someone long\-term. Our goal isn't simply to hire someone to complete a list of tasks. We want to find someone we can trust, invest in, and develop as our company and needs continue to grow. As you demonstrate independence, reliability, good judgment, and the ability to take ownership of increasingly important responsibilities, there may be opportunities to expand your role, hours, responsibilities, and compensation. If you're looking for a position where doing excellent work can lead to greater opportunity, we'd love to hear from you. Background and reference checks will be conducted as part of the hiring process.
