      External Description

      Are you looking for an opportunity to advance your career while working with an extraordinary team? At Merakey, we put our heart and soul into everything we do.

      We seek an Administrative Assistant to join our Behavioral Health Urgent Care (BHUCC) team in Philadelphia, Pa. This posting is Full-time, First Shift (Monday - Friday 10:30am - 7:00pm EST).

      We are a mental health urgent care/walk-in center for adults in need of same-day care that is not an emergency in Philadelphia. We serve individuals experiencing emotional distress, mental health concerns, and/or substance use concerns. Individuals will participate in triage, resolution-focused services, and aftercare planning to prepare for long-term recovery and connection to ongoing care. We serve individuals regardless of income or insurance status. Our services do not replace the need for ongoing mental health care; rather, we aim to reduce avoidable visits to crisis centers and emergency rooms by helping people get the care they need when they need it.

      Position Details

      The Administrative Assistant will report directly to the BHUCC Manager and will handle a wide range of administrative tasks, contributing to the overall effectiveness and organization of the BHUCC daily activities.
