The Roger Williams University Law Library seeks a highly organized, detail-oriented person to join the library as its Administrative and Collection Services Assistant. This position is ideal for someone with administrative office experience seeking to expand their skills in financial operations, budgeting, data analysis, project coordination, event planning, and academic support in a higher education environment.

Finally, the Administrative and Collections Services Assistant provides direct support to the law library dean and staff by coordinating communications, maintaining records, assisting with academic support activities, helping organize meetings and events, and serving as a welcoming point of contact for students, faculty, staff, and visitors. Every day brings opportunities to learn new skills, collaborate across departments, and gain valuable experience in higher education administration, business operations, and library services.

Job Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in a related field from an accredited institution.

A minimum of two years of relevant administrative office experience, including payment and accounting systems.

Strong service orientation.

Excellent interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills.

Experience working with a student body, faculty, and staff with diverse backgrounds and experiences.

Ability to function as a team member and work independently with little or no supervision.

Excellent organizational skills and ability to prioritize tasks and projects.

Attention to detail needed to complete tasks accurately and in a timely manner.

Excellent computer skills, including a working knowledge of the current University-supported Windows environment, Microsoft Office applications, and Acrobat Professional.
