Job Description

Office Assistant / Executive Assistant

Baton Rouge, LA | On-Site | $24–$25/hour (DOE) + Exceptional Benefits

Are you a proactive, detail-oriented professional who thrives in a collaborative and supportive office environment? Do you enjoy a balance of meaningful project work, steady administrative tasks, and being a trusted right hand to company leadership?

Our client, a long-established and industry-leading specialty services provider headquartered in Baton Rouge, is seeking an Office Assistant/Executive Assistant to support company executives. This role offers the chance to join a small but mighty team where employees are valued, supported, and tend to stay for the long haul.

Why You’ll Love It Here:

  • People-first culture where values, work ethic, and personal growth matter.
  • Relaxed and respectful work environment — you’re trusted to do your job well with autonomy.
  • Incredible benefits including BCBS insurance with company-funded HSA, 401(k) with dollar-for-dollar match up to 10%, performance bonuses, and supplemental voluntary benefits.
  • Real development opportunities — you’ll be cross-trained, supported, and encouraged to grow in areas like accounting, project coordination, and operations.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Serve as the right hand to the CEO and the VP of Finance, supporting daily administrative needs, accounting tasks, and jumping into exciting projects as they arise.
  • Draft, edit, and format internal documents, reports, and presentations (PowerPoint a plus!).
  • Create fillable forms and manage project-related documentation using Excel and an internal form-building platform (similar to spreadsheets).
  • Sit in on meetings with executives to take notes, organize next steps, and ensure follow-up.
  • Assist with policy updates (e.g., employee handbook), insurance preparation, and procedural documentation.
  • Provide occasional front desk coverage and general office support across departments.
  • Collaborate on soft-skills and continuing education initiatives across the organization.
  • Learn and grow in other areas of the business — basic accounting experience is a major plus, but training is offered for the right person with aptitude and initiative.

What We’re Looking For:

  • At least 5 years of administrative or executive support experience.
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel skills (advanced formulas, formatting, data entry), and experience with PowerPoint.
  • Light accounting or bookkeeping experience is a strong plus.
  • Must demonstrate commitment and loyalty by work history displaying longevity in positions held.
  • Strong communication and writing skills; ability to craft and edit internal materials.
  • Organized, dependable, and self-motivated — you’re the kind of person who sees what needs to be done and gets to it.
  • Curious and collaborative — you enjoy learning new systems and working with different teams.
  • Bonus points if you have basic accounting knowledge or want to learn!

A Few More Perks:

  • Annual bonuses based on company performance
  • Flexible, family-oriented team
  • Cross-training ensures you're never stuck or siloed — growth is built-in
  • Location: Baton Rouge office (Onsite, south Baton Rouge)

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to contribute meaningfully in a company that genuinely invests in its people. If you’re ready to bring your initiative, organization, and creativity to a team that will appreciate you — we’d love to hear from you!
