Shoreline City Hall reception volunteer position open

Would you like to greet people and help direct them to the right place for service?

The City of Shoreline is looking for volunteers to assist with reception in our beautiful City Hall. The bright new building was designed with a central reception area, and the City is looking for friendly volunteers who can forward calls, answer questions and provide great customer service to visitors and callers.

Volunteers would primarily provide reception duties in-person and on the phone to the general public and City staff. Depending on the volunteer’s skills and the workload in the Clerk’s Office, other minor duties may include computer data entry, issuance of pet licenses, and other office functions such as copying, faxing, filing and mailing.

The ideal volunteer will possess good interpersonal communication skills; a commitment to excellent customer service; an ability to work both independently and as part of the team; word processing skills and an interest in City government.

Volunteers must be willing to commit to at least one four-hour shift per week, 9-1 or 1-5 weekdays, for a period of one year.

Interested volunteers should fill out a Volunteer Application and send to:
