Please read the entire job description before applying if you would like to be considered.
Chronically ill artist with chemical and electrical hypersensitivities seeking one or more highly competent, compassionate individuals to provide reliable support across a wide variety of tasks— from medical and administrative work to caregiving and life maintenance.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a temporary position, as I am visiting Conifer/Denver for medical care. It is currently unknown how long I will be here, but likely through August and potentially longer. There could be the opportunity to make the position more long term if you are interested in traveling to other medical destinations (next up: WA) and/or relocating to Santa Fe, NM, where I typically reside.
Overview:
If you are extremely organized with a keen attention to detail, possess the ability to think critically and strategically, and can easily juggle multiple priorities while remaining centered and calm, this job will put your skills to meaningful use.
Our small, diverse team is composed of kind and talented individuals who are passionate about what they do. We value clear communication, healthy boundaries, flexibility, and creativity coupled with precision.
This is a unique position. It’s not just an administrative role; it’s about remaining present and engaged in a dynamic, ever-changing, and sometimes stressful environment while caring for the wellbeing of yourself, another, and our team. The ideal candidate understands that adaptability and diligence are crucial when lives are in the balance, and that care for the collective is essential to individual success.
Job Duties & Responsibilities:
Administrative Support - Manage various office tasks, such as; calls and scheduling, tracking supplies and finances (via spreadsheets, etc), managing email inboxes, online ordering, and more.
Caregiving Tasks - Offer compassionate, grounded support, including but not limited to; errands, light housekeeping duties like laundry and tidying, heavy lifting (water jugs, packages, etc), medication prompting, and helping care for a very sweet 25lb dog.
Medical Advocacy & Support - Coordinate medical care and advocate for my needs by updating medical documents, communicating with doctors, detailed note taking, providing transportation and support for doctor’s appointments (via my car), and more.
Project Assistance - Provide support for personal and professional projects, including but not limited to; research projects, general organization, and managing timelines.
Sensitivity Accommodation- I have extreme chemical, electrical, and noise sensitivities. This means using nontoxic, unscented laundry and other personal products, and turning electronics off (or in airplane mode) while around me.
Flexibility- Flexibility is important, as the role requires availability for potential coverage for other team members in case of emergencies or planned time off. The same flexibility for time off will be afforded to you.
Work Schedule & Logistics:
Shift: 8-10hrs per day, beginning around 11am.
Hours/Days: 24-40 hours over 3-5 days per week, preferably consecutive (e.g.,
Sunday-Wednesday). A regular schedule will be established before hiring, based on your and the team’s needs/desires.
Trial Period: There is a mandatory 30hr trial and preliminary training period, paid at $20/hr to ensure a good fit for both parties.
Pay: Upon successful completion of the trial period, you transition to the full hourly rate of $30/hr. Starting pay is non-negotiable, though there are opportunities for raises/promotions. Mileage during work is reimbursed at the standard national rate. Employees must complete a W-4 and are paid bi-weekly via ADP.
Location: Primary location is my rental home in Conifer, 5min from Natural Grocers. Errands and appointments would involve drives into the greater Denver area (most likely Littleton, Lakewood, etc).
Fine Print:
You must have a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
Professional references, a background check, and a signed nondisclosure agreement are required
Use of A.I. for application, writing materials, and/or work tasks is not permitted
