C & J Specialties is a growing snack food manufacturing company looking for a highly organized, adaptable, and motivated Administrative Assistant to work directly with our Owner/CEO. This is not a traditional administrative position where every day looks the same. The person in this role will work closely with the Owner/CEO on a wide variety of projects, priorities, and day-to-day business needs.

The selected candidate will begin with a paid training and introductory evaluation period. During this time, both the employee and employer will have an opportunity to determine whether the position is a good long-term fit before transitioning into regular full-time employment. We are not expecting someone to walk in knowing everything. We are looking for someone with the right foundation, attitude, communication skills, judgment, and ability to learn. Why This Position Is Different This is an opportunity for someone who does not want to spend every day performing exactly the same tasks. You will have the opportunity to learn how different parts of a growing company operate, work directly with company leadership, participate in a wide range of projects, develop new skills, and become an important part of helping the business grow.
