  • Special Projects: Take ownership of one-off tasks and projects as needed

Qualifications

  • Local to Houston, TX but not required (preferred)

  • Proactive Mindset: You don’t wait for a manual; you see a gap and fill it.

  • Reliability: Even in a volunteer capacity, you treat deadlines with professional urgency.

  • Discretion: You will often handle sensitive organizational information and must maintain strict confidentiality.

  • Communication Skills: You can turn a 2-minute voice note or a messy bulleted list into a polished professional email.
