Front Desk Receptionist
At BurnettDriskill, Attorneys, we strive to be the best to our clients and each other. We are looking for a Front Desk Receptionist to answer our busy phones and direct those calls appropriately, review our rather large intake of mail and route appropriately, greet our clients as they come in promptly and professionally.
These tasks are paramount to a successful firm, and we rely heavily on this person for our work to run smoothly. We are in office, and this is a particular requirement for this position.
Some will review this and feel that they are capable of doing this position easily. It is not nearly as easy as it seems. These three basic tasks are quite complex and require a person who is willing to learn.
If you want to be challenged, enjoy working with your teammates, and help a community of people going through some challenging times, please send us your resume. This work is both fulfilling and challenging.
