Do you have a knack for formatting Word documents perfectly? Do you consider yourself to be systematic, efficient & meticulous?
If you’re someone who’s fantastic at supporting teams and loves administrative work, you might just be the person we're looking for.
[About Our Company]
Our team is on a mission to create the best learning experience when it comes to Science tuition.
We're constantly pushing back against traditional teaching practices that no longer work as well in this day and age. Lessons at The Pique Lab are designed based on pedagogical research, data-driven methodologies and has a purpose: they infuse plenty of joy in learning, shorten learning curves and help students develop a genuine appreciation for Science.
Our team of over 70 members spanning across 3 countries (Singapore, Philippines and China) operates in an open, fast-paced, flat environment where every team member is known for their competencies & skills, rather than their job titles.
[About The Opportunity]
As an Administration Executive, your mission is to take good care of all administrative matters within the academic team, so that our academic faculty is able to perform at their best.
You’re the behind-the-scenes, selfless magician who is always making things better and convenient for others, which everyone is secretly thankful for.
Being successful in your role means that you are able to make things run like clockwork & everyone can count on you to get any administrative task done. Your success will help more students learn Science easier, better & faster.
Here’s What A Typical Week Will Look Like For You:
(1) Participate in the vetting process to make sure the materials published comply with the organisation’s internal guidelines. (... this is an extremely important task & we need superheroes with the eye to catch bad grammar and fix them.)
(2) Assist in the production of lesson materials. (... while it sounds easy as pie, it takes a lot of skill to produce materials based on our needs. We'll train you to the point where your skills are comparable to those uncles/aunties who run printing shops.)
(3) Exercise database hygiene by curating & tidying questions in our database, so they’re all good to be used in our publications. (... if you are passionate about organising stuff & making sure everything looks neat and tidy, this is it!)
(4) Assist in the formatting of targeted practices (... in order to do this task well, you need to be able to appreciate and master the art of formatting documents on Microsoft Word - think: section breaks, headers/footers, line spacings; likewise, training will be provided for those who are not proficient in Microsoft Word)
