What our analysts see this month

Competitive market | next 3-6 months

Kansas City is still a usable market for Administrative & Office Support, but it is no longer an easy one. Office and administrative support jobs still make up 11.3% of metro employment, and the local sample shows more than 350 recent postings across more than 200 companies, so openings exist across a broad base of employers. The harder part is conversion: Missouri administrative & office support postings are down 8.7% year over year, local Professional and Business Services employment was down -1.1013% year over year in June 2026, and national hires were down -3.2727% year over year in July 2026.

Best positioned: Candidates with a few years of on-site experience who can pair Microsoft Office and Excel, data entry, and customer-facing work with sector context in healthcare, hospitality, or professional services have the best odds right now.

Main caution: The biggest mistake is assuming remote general-admin jobs are the norm; about 95% of the local sample is on-site, while only about 5% is remote and about 5% is hybrid.

Where the demand is

Real opportunity is spread across a long tail rather than one dominant employer. The local sample shows more than 350 postings across more than 200 companies over the last 90 days, and hiring appears fragmented rather than concentrated in one firm. That matters because you can widen your odds by searching sector-first instead of employer-first, especially across healthcare, hospitality, retail, education, and construction. The heaviest local posting mix sits in healthcare at about 30% and hospitality at about 25%, followed by retail and education at about 10% each. In practice, that points job seekers toward front-desk, scheduling, office assistant, and general-office work tied to service-heavy operations rather than pure back-office headquarters roles. About 30% of postings in the sample come from large employers, which helps entry-level applicants and career switchers who need clearer process and training structures. Higher pay exists, but it is narrower. Local examples in financial services, nonprofit arts, professional services, and construction show that office administrator and executive-support openings remain available, but those jobs usually ask for more discretion, project support, or sector-specific knowledge than classic clerical roles.

• Healthcare front-office admin (high): Healthcare makes up about 30% of the local posting mix, making it the deepest pool for reception, scheduling, intake, and general office-support work that is outside medical records and billing.
• Hospitality and multi-site service employers (high): Hospitality is about 25% of the local mix and often values customer service, cash handling, and strong in-person reliability.
• Professional-services and finance office administration (moderate): This is a smaller pool, but recent Kansas City openings show $50,000–$75,000 office administrator and $50,000–$60,000 executive-assistant roles when employers want broader discretion and specialized support.
• Construction project office support (limited): Construction is about 5% of the sample, but local contractor openings show a usable niche for applicants with documentation, coordination, and service-contract support experience.

Where to focus: Focus first on on-site roles in healthcare and hospitality if you need speed, then stretch into executive-support and office-administrator openings once you can prove calendar ownership, Excel, and stakeholder coordination.

Roles worth searching next

• Patient access or medical office scheduling: It uses the same phone, scheduling, front-desk, and documentation habits as general office support.
• Accounts payable or payroll support: Strong data-entry, spreadsheet, and detail-control skills transfer well from office support work.
• HR coordinator or recruiting coordinator: Scheduling, document handling, candidate communication, and calendar management overlap heavily with administrative work.
• Logistics or shipping-office coordinator: Dispatching, paperwork, vendor contact, and system accuracy draw on the same operational admin strengths.

What postings ask for

• Data entry (table_stakes | immediate): It is the single most-mentioned hard skill in the local sample at about 20%, so it is the cleanest baseline filter for office assistant and clerical roles. Who: Entry-level applicants, returners, and career switchers.
• Microsoft Office, Excel, and Word (table_stakes | immediate): Microsoft Office appears in about 15% of postings, while Excel and Word each appear in about 10%, making basic office-software fluency non-optional. Who: Everyone in the category.
• Customer service and front-desk handling (differentiator | immediate): Customer service shows up in about 10% of postings and cash handling in about 15%; that is a clue that many local admin jobs sit close to front-desk or service operations, especially in hospitality and retail. Who: Entry-level candidates and career switchers coming from retail, food service, or call-center backgrounds.
• Advanced scheduling and calendar ownership (differentiator | near-term): National executive-assistant benchmarks show employers pay premiums for advanced scheduling skills, and local higher-end executive support roles reflect that shift toward calendar ownership and complex coordination. Who: Mid-career admins trying to move into executive support.
• Project coordination (premium | near-term): Project coordination is a pay-up skill in executive support nationally and is especially useful when moving from general admin into office administrator or construction and professional-services support roles. Who: Mid-career applicants and ambitious office assistants.
• Stakeholder management and board/C-suite support (premium | near-term): Stakeholder management is a premium skill in national executive-assistant hiring, and Kansas City examples include board-liaison and CEO-support roles rather than pure clerical work. Who: Experienced admins aiming for executive assistant, office manager, or board-support work.

Questions about this market

What do Administrative & Office Support roles pay in Kansas City, MO-KS?

The anchored local wage signal is BLS: office and administrative support in Kansas City averaged $24.06 per hour in May 2025, versus $31.99 across all occupations locally.
