Description

Overview

The Department of Sociology at Princeton University seeks applicants for a full-time Administrative Assistant position for the Eviction Lab. The Administrative Assistant will support the Principal Investigator and handle day-to-day operations for a team of 25 people. Successful candidates will have experience working in collaborative environments and on medium- to large-sized teams.

The Eviction Lab at Princeton University conducts research on housing instability and its effects on communities. By joining our team, you’ll help facilitate crucial research that shapes policy and improves lives. The Eviction Lab is deeply involved in multiple spheres—from academic research and book publishing to community engagement, local and national policy making, journalism and event planning. By working closely with Professor Matthew Desmond and the rest of the team, you’ll gain the unique experience of bridging these realms. This role offers an opportunity to further develop a wide-ranging skill set and help drive real, meaningful change.

The Administrative Assistant will focus on two main areas of responsibility: 1) providing direct support to the Principal Investigator, including managing the PI’s calendar, correspondence, travel, academic coordination, and financial reporting; and 2) overseeing smooth functioning of day-to day operations at the Lab, such as managing the office space, handling email inquiries, organizing group meetings, and collaborating with the rest of the administrative team to anticipate and meet the Lab’s evolving needs.

This role requires a proactive communicator who can navigate time-sensitive and high-stakes situations with confidence and anticipate challenges before they arise.

This is a one-year term, benefits eligible position. Interested candidates should submit a cover letter and resume with their application.

Serve as the first point of contact for the Lab, managing phone calls, emails, and inquiries.
