About Us:
At Kansas Renewal Institute, we pride ourselves on providing compassionate, consistent care for those who need it most. As a Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility (PRTF), our mission is to support healing, growth, and hope for the individuals we serve—and that starts with having the right team behind the scenes.
We’re a dedicated group of professionals who balance serious work with a sense of humor—and one boss who needs the occasional reminder that “yes, that meeting is today.” That’s where you come in.
The Role:
We’re seeking a highly organized, proactive, and mildly magical Administrative Assistant to help keep our operations (and our fearless leader) on track. You’ll support a team making a real difference in people’s lives while making sure calendars are up to date, paperwork is flowing, and the boss doesn’t “accidentally” schedule two lunches.
Responsibilities:
Manage calendars, schedules, and appointments like a time-bending wizard
Coordinate meetings, trainings, and events for clinical and administrative staff
Handle communications and correspondence with clarity and compassion
Keep documents, records, and deadlines organized and confidential
Provide support to leadership with professionalism—and a pinch of patience
Gently (or firmly) keep our boss focused, punctual, and hydrated
Willingness to assist with basic HR tasks
Requirements:
Proficient in Microsoft Office and Google Suite
IT troubleshooting skills and the ability to keep a phone extension roster current (a plus)
Previous experience in an administrative or executive support role
Excellent organizational skills and the ability to multitask under pressure
Strong communication and interpersonal skills
Organizational skills with effective time management
Proficiency in office software and calendar management tools
A sense of humor, a calm demeanor, and a commitment to confidentiality
Bonus Points If You:
Have experience in healthcare, behavioral health, or a similar setting
Can navigate complex schedules and still smile afterward
Once got a boss to a meeting early (legend status)
Perks:
The opportunity to work in a mission-driven organization making a real impact
A supportive and sometimes quirky team that values initiative and compassion
Occasional free coffee, constant appreciation, and bragging rights when you keep the boss on schedule
To Apply:
Send us your resume and a short note telling us the funniest or most unusual calendar mix-up you’ve ever had to fix. We can’t wait to hear your story.
