• Collaborate with a supportive team that values accuracy, quality, and continuous improvement

What You'll Do:

• Conduct non-public record research and enter data into systems.
• Review and verify order results for accuracy and compliance.
• Manage records using a first-in, first-out approach to meet deadlines.

• A dedicated home office space that is noise- and distraction-free with access to a reliable and secure high-speed internet connection. Cable or fiber internet connections (at least 75mbps download/10mbps upload) are preferred, as satellite connections often cannot support the technologies used to perform day-to-day task.
