Organization

The Ohio Center for Law-Related Education (OCLRE) is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that provides civics, law, and government programming and curricula to teachers and students throughout the state (approx. grades 6-12). All OCLRE programs align with Ohio Learning Standards and are designed to promote civic education and participation.

 

Job Purpose

Key responsibilities include maintaining and updating CRM systems; processing registrations, orders, and invoices; answering/directing inquiries (phone, email); managing calendars; and organizing office records to ensure smooth daily operations.

 

Ideal Candidate Profile

The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple priorities in a small, mission-driven nonprofit environment. This role requires someone who communicates professionally, follows through reliably, and approaches new challenges with curiosity, flexibility, and a problem-solving mindset.

Experience with CRM systems, accounting or invoicing software, and Microsoft Office 365 is preferred, but direct experience with every system is not required. Strong candidates should be comfortable learning new technology, maintaining accurate records, and using digital tools to support daily operations, communications, and reporting.
