​Note: this description is intended to give you a general overview of the position and is not an exhaustive listing of duties and responsibilities.

Why RDM

Work / life balance -- our normal day begins between 7-8 am, and you’ll generally work business hours Monday through Friday. However, we believe in helping our employees to maintain a strong balance, so we are flexible enough to work it out if you need to come in late or leave early once in awhile, such as to attend events at your child’s school.

Autonomy and support -- you’ll have the Office Manager by your side to help answer questions, but she’ll also give you the elbow room to do your own job. If you’re the person we’re looking for, you’ll be excited to drive your areas (such as billing), and interested in learning more from the strong mentors on your team.

Training and development -- in this role, you’ll gain knowledge across a wide variety of areas. Even if you come from construction, you’ll have the chance to learn some of the ins and outs of the specialty tasks associated with custom construction, and will have opportunities to develop skills and knowledge in office functions you may not have tried before (such as payroll).

Great environment -- this is a very family-oriented, close knit company and team. People enjoy working here, as demonstrated by the low turnover rate, and we enjoy camaraderie and fun on the job.

A Reputation for Excellence -- at RDM, we strive for excellence across every aspect of our business, from initial pre-job planning, to final phases of construction, and even to completing the billing in a precise and timely fashion. Our common goal as a company is to deliver an outstanding product, and we are committed to the highest levels of professionalism. With more than 90% of our business built on referrals, we are confident that our commitment to excellence will bring us continued growth.

Competitive compensation -- in addition to a competitive hourly wage and overtime pay if you work more than 40 hours per week, we offer a variety of benefits. These include medical benefits and a flexible spending account; a 401(k) plan with company contribution (beginning a year after your employment); paid holidays and time off; and the possibility for a year-end performance-based bonus.

Keys to Success

The right candidate for this role is smart and good at thinking on your feet. To excel here, you’ll need to be good at communicating and getting along with others as most of your day will be spent working with the cross-functional team and external customers and vendors.

In addition, to be an outstanding Assistant Office Manager, you will:
  • Remain flexible in our dynamic environment. As needs arise during the day our priorities may shift, and you’ll need to be able to roll with those changes.
  • Maintain a detail-oriented approach to billing, recognizing that it can be a time-consuming process that requires follow-through and thoroughness.
  • Take the initiative to see what needs to be done and do it. We are a close-knit team, and everyone pitches in to help when needed.
  • Have an investigative mind, with the desire to learn and grow, always looking for better ways to solve issues before bringing them to your supervisor.
  • Fit with the company culture of an excellence mindset. All details of your work will be completed correctly, but you should go above and beyond to make the end product look nice, and to check it over multiple times. This isn’t just about doing work to get it done, but about taking pride in everything you do.
