Office Supervisor

Description/Duties The current vacancy is in the Arts and Culture Department; however, this recruitment will also be used to establish a Citywide list to fill possible future vacancies. An Office Supervisor performs office supervision and administrative support work involving full and significant supervision of clerical and/or paraprofessional staff. This class supervises and coordinates all office activities and resolution of daily problems. Incumbents are responsible for selecting, training, and supervising personnel; controlling workflow; establishing and implementing office policies, procedures, and goals; compiling data and preparing reports; and resolving operational and procedural problems. In addition, the Office Supervisor provides administrative support to a division or department that may include preparing or assisting in the preparation of the budget. This class is also responsible for performing related duties as required. Work is performed with independence within established policies and procedures and may also require technical knowledge of a program area. This classification differs from the Administrative Supervisor classification by the latter having responsibility for more diverse and complex assignments, greater independence under which the work is performed, by the considerable latitude exercised, minimal supervision required, and greater decision-making ability. Minimum supervision is received from an administrative staff person, division director, or department director, who may review work through meetings and the evaluation of overall results achieved. This class is FLSA non-exempt. Please refer to the link below for the full job description and additional information regarding assignments, preferred qualifications, and essential functions.
