Tasks might include such things as preparing material for agency manuals, preparing correspondence and memoranda, transmitting information, conducting routine desk audits, organizing and preparing duties descriptions, compiling and reviewing budget data, reviewing bid results, etc. You might also assist in recruitment and selection of new employees and in conducting organizational studies to identify and solve administrative and management problems.
