Administrative Assistant (Remote, Flexible, Volunteer Role)

About Us

We are The Preventative Search and Rescue Initiative Inc, a newly approved 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Our mission is to keep people safe in the outdoors through prevention and education. The first initiative is based in the Catskills region of New York where many hikers take on their first serious challenges.

The Role

This is not a title only role. It is hands on work. If you like organizing, cleaning up messy files, keeping things moving, and turning half formed ideas into something usable, this is for you.

Key Responsibilities

• Keep Google Docs, Sheets, and Drive organized

• Format and clean up drafts so they are readable

• Track contacts, schedules, and onboarding tasks

• Test simple digital tools such as forms, calendars, and shared files

• Make sure nothing falls through the cracks

Who We Are Looking For

• Organized and reliable

• The kind of person who feels good fixing messy systems

• Comfortable with Google Workspace or willing to learn fast

• Interest in the outdoors is a plus but you do not have to be climbing peaks

• Disabled volunteers and veterans are strongly encouraged to apply

Commitment

• Remote role with flexible hours

• About 5 to 10 hours per week

• You set your schedule and simply stay dependable

Why Join

Every system you organize and every task you finish supports real outdoor safety work. This is a ground floor opportunity with a nonprofit that has already been recognized by the IRS. If you have ever wanted to help build something meaningful from day one, this is it.
