Complexity &amp; Creativity: 
The department assistant coordinates the day-to-day operations of the Natural and Behavioral Sciences department, executing complex professional tasks requiring a high level of technical proficiency, decision-making skills, and judgment regarding complex, confidential, and/or sensitive issues.
The department assistant relies on established departmental standards to produce internal reports and documents as well as upon the College’s and TBR’s documented policy and procedures as needed. Technical proficiency is maintained by attendance of software trainings and other professional development opportunities including independent study and reading.&nbsp;
The position holder will be required to work with Microsoft Office, FLAC (adjunct contract system), Outlook, the Pellibiz (Sciquest) purchasing system, Banner INB, myPellissippi (Banner Self Service) Argos, Adobe, and the 25Live room reservation system.&nbsp; The position holder must also be able to scan documents, use a fax machine, use a multi-line phone, and operate photocopiers.
This is an all-purpose administrative professional position in an institute of higher learning, and the person who holds the position should be, or become, versed in polite and discreet customer service and the College’s and TBR’s policies and procedures. &nbsp;The holder of the position is often on the frontline of receiving students’ and students’ parents’ complaints about instructors.&nbsp; This requires tact and confidentiality.&nbsp; It is necessary to participate in active listening, neutral-party assuagement of the students’ and other parties’ feelings, and then accurately communicate with all parties concerned (instructor, coordinator, dean, and students) in order to provide the background to resolve the problem.&nbsp; In cases in which students’ family members issue the instructor complaints, the position holder must uphold FERPA privacy requirements, advise affected instructors to do the same, and inform the family members of necessary paperwork for student waiver of FERPA if necessary.&nbsp; The position holder also must be aware of and uphold the necessity of confidentiality regarding student perception results and the dean’s evaluations of faculty members.
Magnitude of Impact: 
Simple and complex issues being addressed can determine immediate, daily and long-term effects for all of the following: the deans, faculty, adjuncts, staff, and student outcomes. More than likely, the Dean and Vice Presidents, and director levels of the organization would be required to resolve errors.
Responsibility for Accuracy: 
All production work regarding payment and purchases (contracts, reports, book orders, etc.) is verified by the dean as it is produced, so there is constant verification.&nbsp; A typical error would involve typos, and an undetected error might result in an inaccuracy of payment for an adjunct instructor or substitute teacher.
Financial Impact:
The department assistant is responsible for annual inventory of faculty office and classroom equipment at all campuses; late or improper performance of inventory could affect assignment of expensive items.&nbsp; The assistant also researches, orders, maintains, and distributes many supplies and other items besides those on the official inventory.&nbsp;
Budget:
The dean of the department is responsible for budgetary decisions and tracking, and the assistant helps by meticulous maintenance of purchasing records and careful consultation and coordination with shipping and receiving.
Judgement &amp; Decisions: 
This position involves both regular and spontaneous task work and customer service carried out with a minimum of referral to the dean.&nbsp; The departmental assistant also assesses departmental supply needs and orders independently, but all final departmental payments and purchases are dependent on the dean’s signature. The department assistant regularly checks and enforces faculty members’ compliance with departmental and College procedures and policies regarding such documents as instructor schedules, appropriate professional development activities, etc. This position involves both regular and spontaneous task work and customer service.
Nature of Contacts: 
In addition to working with any faculty, staff and students, this position is required to make contact with staff and administrators in almost all areas of the college which include Academic Affairs, Human Resources, President’s Office, Payroll, Records, Institutional Research, Facilities, Helpdesk/Computer technicians, Event Services, Accounts Payable, Purchasing, Campus Police, Cafeteria Services, Advising, the Executive Assistant I to the Vice President of Academic Affairs, and testing. This position is also the contact for business owners, professionals, applicants, and the general public who consult with the college with regard to the Natural and Behavioral Sciences program by way of the web site, email and/or phone. Many students call and walk in for assistance and information about various matters, and there are considerable calls from the general public about course and teacher information along with issues, prerequisites, required resources for courses, tutor services, as well as about departmental and college events.
The department assistant should expect contact with outside visitors, adjuncts, book representatives, vendors, and other institutions requiring information. The nature of interaction includes responding to recommendations, community inquiries, student teacher conflicts recommendations, college procedures, and deadlines for individual departments.
Relaying of correct and current information of all inquiries made to the departmental assistant is taken as fact; however further advisement and solutions are a representation of the department dean and College policies. Knowledgeable, tactful and creative questions are used to solve problems while remaining accurate and professional
Physical Demands:
This job requires lifting, walking, standing, sitting. There is lifting of copy paper (~30lb boxes), textbooks, and packages. The department has a dolly and carts that can be used for heavier objects.
Hazards:
There is no more probability of possible physical injury or illness in this position than there is with other jobs which involve a non-lockdown work facility which allows constant walk-ins by the general public. However, this position requires exposure to large student and employee populations who could have both illness and the potential for volatile individual behavior.&nbsp;
