Office Assistant 3 - Seattle CJC

Office Assistant 3 (OA3) Community Corrections Division

The Washington State Department of Corrections is looking to fill two full-time, non-permanent Office Assistant (OA3) positions within the Community Corrections Division. Although both positions work for the Seattle Community Justice Center located at 1550 4th Ave South, Seattle, WA 98134, one of the two positions works with the Special Needs Unit (SNU) and will perform slightly different duties. Both non-permanent appointments are expected to not exceed twelve months. Work hours are Monday-Friday, 8 : 00 am to 5 : 00 pm. Under general supervision from the Administrative Assistant 3 (AA3), one of the two non-perm OA3s will perform receptionist, file management, and routine, advanced clerical duties for the AA3, Community Corrections Supervisor, and the Community Corrections Officers. The other non-perm OA3 will provide general clerical support to the Special Needs Unit, AA3, CCOs, and the CCS and will assist with reception coverage as needed. The Special Needs Unit supervises a caseload of individuals who have a serious mental illness involving cases where individuals have been found Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity and Special Finding of Violent Felony cases, along with those who have been sentenced to the Mental Health Sentencing Alternative. This unit works closely with mental health providers in the community.

We are looking for teammates who share our vision of public service and are committed to an equitable and inclusive culture that fosters and inspires excellence, while promoting innovation, engagement, and safety, leading to better outcomes for our community and our agency. If you have a passion for service - review, decide, and apply!
