In this role, you'll help maintain important complaint management and safety reporting systems, assist agency staff with technical questions, and ensure information is accurately documented and tracked.
The best part? You don't need a college degree or specialized certification. We're looking for strong computer skills, a problem-solving mindset, and someone who takes pride in getting the details right.

This position combines computer support, database management, and administrative coordination. Your responsibilities will include:
-
Be the go-to problem solver: Assist agency staff and system users with database questions, data entry issues, and basic troubleshooting.
-
Keep information organized: Enter, update, and maintain accurate complaint records across multiple computer systems.
-
Put your computer skills to work: Navigate specialized systems, including NIMRS, Concerts, MHPD, and the Verizon Virtual Contact Center.
-
Stay ahead of the details: Monitor reports, track outstanding items, and follow up to help ensure complaints are addressed promptly.
-
Connect the dots: Communicate with other New York State agencies, field offices, and service providers to obtain information and document outcomes.
-
Support important safety processes: Assist with safety checks related to reported allegations of abuse and maintain accurate follow-up documentation.
-
Help others succeed: Guide system users through entering information, accessing reports, and resolving technical difficulties.

-
Are comfortable working with computers and learning new software.
-
Have strong data entry skills and an eye for accuracy.
-
Enjoy troubleshooting problems and finding solutions.
-
Can manage multiple responsibilities without losing track of important details.
-
Communicate clearly and professionally by phone, email, and in person.
-
Are organized, dependable, and comfortable working independently.
-
Understand the importance of confidentiality when handling sensitive information.
-
Enjoy helping coworkers and other system users solve problems.
Experience in customer service, administrative support, data entry, database management, or technical support could make you a strong candidate.
Familiarity with NIMRS, Concerts, or MHPD would be beneficial, but the most important qualifications are strong computer proficiency and the ability to work with specialized information systems.
