About the Role

Albemarle is seeking an energetic, highly organized Administrative Assistant to support the Washington, D.C. office of our U.S. External Affairs team.

• Serve as the primary point of contact for D.C. office operations, including vendor management, supplies, office logistics, and visitor coordination.

• Serve as a reliable team resource for coordinating cross-functional activities, supporting key policy and advocacy initiatives, and ensuring effective information flow.
