Administrative Assistant - Military Veterans

Medcor is looking to hire an Administrative Assistant to join our healthcare team at our clinic in Waterloo, IA.

The Administrative Assistant will be responsible for providing high-level, administrative support to the Operations Department. This position requires that you are highly organized, can juggle many tasks at once, are not easily overwhelmed, and are comfortable interfacing with all levels of internal management and staff, as well as outside clients and vendors.

Get a load of this, here at Medcor, we value your opinion. Crazy, right? You know what else? Our leadership team likes to recognize your contributions and offer you something called compliments. Turns out people feel valued because of it. Now combine that work environment with good pay, a bunch of great benefits, some perks like a strong focus on your health and wellness, and before you know it, you’re working with coworkers that are pleasant and caring. It’s not rocket science. It’s Medcor. We sincerely hope this is the last job application you’ll ever have to fill out.

Here’s the top five reasons why this job is different than any other you’re looking for:

1. Medcor focuses on every advocate’s personal well-being, known as our Better Me Wellness program. How many corporate jobs around here give you that? You get things like:
   
   
   
   
   
   • Access to wellness coaches who support you as you work toward your health and wellness goals
   
   
   
   • Health insurance discount for participation
   
   
   
   • On-site fitness center with daily fitness classes
   
   
   
   • You get a daily 20 minute wellness break
   
   
   
   
   
   



2. Activities to engage employee interaction (BBQ’s in the summer, contests, wellness walks), which helps create and maintain a fun and interactive corporate culture. You should enjoy your time at work.



3. Medcor believes and supports a fun and inviting atmosphere as part of our Better@Medcor program. Advocates complement each other, are happy at work, and there’s even time for play. I know, crazy concept, huh? But it works!



4. Coffee! We have the best coffee machine around. Maybe this should be number 1.



5. Support and an open-door policy. As part of the Medcor family, we know life happens and it can be crazy at times. We support you and work with you through all the challenging times. We believe in a work/life balance. We want good, healthy advocates who can, in turn, advocate for others and make this place a whole lot better.
