Work Environment: Work is performed in a standard office setting at a reception desk with comfortable and typical environmental conditions. The position often involves a high level of activity, competing priorities, and frequent interaction with dissatisfied or upset customers. May be required to work during inclement weather or emergency events. Because this role is responsible for answering the department’s main phone line, the incumbent must remain in the work area during designated coverage periods.
