Job Duties

The Senate of Virginia is seeking a reliable, detail-oriented educator or youth-program professional to join the Senate Page Program—a premier, session-long leadership and civic education program facilitated by the Senate Clerk’s Office for 13 and 14-year-old students from across the Commonwealth. Former middle or high school teachers, school administrators, and classroom support staff are encouraged to apply.

Working as the central point of contact for the Senate Page Room, the Senate Page Supervisor coordinates daily workflow, task distribution, and student supervision for the Senate Page class. Under the direction of the Clerk of the Senate and program leadership, this role manages real-time assignment distribution from Senators, agency offices, and legislative personnel, ensuring seamless operations in a high-energy legislative environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Leadership: Coordinate with the assistant supervisors, oversee the morning check-in process, guide the distribution of daily tasks, and ensure accurate completion of incoming requests from legislative offices to include receiving, logging, organizing, and communicating.
• Professional Standards & Decorum: Monitor and enforce room protocol, and actively enforce expectations regarding attire, conduct, and decorum for Senate Pages.
• Stakeholder & Customer Service: Deliver exceptional customer service to high-level government officials, state agency employees, and legislative staff.
• Educational Programming & Activity Facilitation: In addition to handling fast-paced daily operations, the supervisor leads the transition of the room’s afternoon dynamic to host structured activities for the entire class.
• Operational Flexibility: Adapt swiftly to changing daily schedules, committee meetings, and legislative session requirements while maintaining high attention to detail.

The preferred candidate must be team-oriented, an exceptional communicator and constant professional in a fast-paced environment. Although experience in teaching, school administration, youth development, or student leadership programs is preferred, a prior school setting is not required.

Applicants must pass a background check.
