• Edit transcripts for grammar, punctuation, and formatting before final delivery.
• Client Onboarding & Briefing: Facilitate 15- to 20-minute video or chat sessions to capture project scope, specific formatting rules, and turnaround times.
• Document client preferences in our CRM so everyone has the same reference.
• Workflow Management: Use Trello, Jira, or Monday.com to assign tasks to data entry specialists and typists.
• Monitor project milestones, send reminders, and ensure deliverables meet deadlines.
• Quality Assurance & Review: Perform second-level checks on spreadsheets and transcripts. Utilize checklists to confirm at least 98 percent accuracy (we aim for 99 percent).
• Flag recurring errors or client feedback, then share insights with the team to improve processes.
• Reporting & Client Updates: Produce concise weekly status summaries that outline completed tasks, upcoming deadlines, and any potential roadblocks.
• Schedule brief check-ins with clients after milestone deliveries to gather feedback.
• Process Documentation & Training: Write straightforward SOPs (standard operating procedures) that detail each step of data entry and transcription workflows.
• Create short how-to videos or slide decks to onboard new hires or cross-train colleagues.

• High school diploma required; associate degree or relevant certificate (office administration, business technology) a plus.
• At least one year of hands-on experience in data entry and/or transcription, whether professionally or through internships/projects.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy when working with written information.
• Comfortable using Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and document editing tools.
• Ability to follow written instructions and established processes.
