Job Specifics
Duties Description SUNY Geneseo is looking to hire an Administrative Assistant 2 for the School of Education (SOE).
As an Administrative Assistant 2 (AA2), you’ll provide administrative, executive, and strategic support to the Dean of the School of Education by overseeing day-to-day operations, personnel transactions, and strategic initiatives and priorities in this growing area of the college.
You will ensure the efficient operation of the School of Education by performing a wide range of administrative duties including resolving day-to-day operational problems, responding to phone calls, sorting paper and electronic mail, maintaining office supplies, supporting processes such as adding and dropping students from courses, overall office organization, and following up on faculty, staff, student, and community questions and needs. You will process SOE faculty and staff travel and national memberships, reconcile state and foundation accounts, and maintain a detailed budgetary report to be shared monthly with the SOE. You’ll provide logistical support for searches and help to onboard new adjuncts, lecturers, and faculty in the SOE. You’ll also recruit and oversee Work Study students.
As an AA2, you’ll perform duties at an advanced level in compliance with SOE and college policies and procedures, on behalf of the dean. These include working closely with the dean to prepare for and take minutes of SOE faculty/staff meetings, executive coordinating committee meetings, communications with program coordinators, standing committee chairs, and college stakeholder groups both on and off-campus. You’ll be responsible for internal communications (including weekly student newsletters), document organization, calendar management, and the master calendar. Your duties include overseeing and monitoring SOE listservs and weekly newsletters, including tracking and posting PK-12 hiring announcements. You’ll manage and update SOE webpages.
Your role includes logistical responsibility for the SOE graduation celebration, Shear Speaker Series, accreditor site visits, special events, and strategic initiatives. This includes communication with speakers, processing W-9s, securing travel and overnight accommodations, venue, CAS, CIT, parking reservations and marketing.
The AA2 regularly engages with faculty, staff, students, and the community, serving as the face of the SOE and the Office of the Dean in these engagements.
