Original job description

Empower change and shape the future at The Missouri House of Representatives, where dedicated individuals collaborate in a dynamic, inclusive environment. Through meaningful work, professional growth, and a commitment to community impact, we foster a culture of integrity and excellence. Join us in upholding the values of democracy and contributing to the betterment of Missouri's legislative landscape.

Legislator Assistants provide essential administrative and legislative support to House members. This role serves as a key point of contact for constituents and the public, responding to calls, emails, and office visits with professionalism and efficiency. Assistants manage organizational systems, including databases and files, and conduct research on legislation, bills, and policy issues to keep the member informed.

Key responsibilities include drafting and distributing press releases, district newsletters, and other communications; planning field trips to the Capitol, conferences, and special events; and making travel arrangements when needed. The Legislator Assistant ensures timely and accurate management of the member’s expense account in compliance with House policy and maintains detailed records. Additional duties include composing correspondence and reports, taking and transcribing meeting minutes, and attending committee hearings to support the members’ work. This role requires strong communication, organizational, and research skills, along with the ability to manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Successful candidates must demonstrate strong customer service skills and proficiency in using a personal computer, including Microsoft Office applications. These positions also require effective verbal and written communication skills, a high degree of professionalism and confidentiality, the ability to build and maintain productive working relationships, and strong organizational and time-management abilities. High School graduation or equivalent required; additional education is beneficial. One or more years of work experience in a related field and a general knowledge of the legislative process is preferred.

The House prohibits the hiring of any person who at the time of initial hiring is related to any member within the fourth degree by blood or marriage.

The State of Missouri offers an excellent benefits package that includes a defined pension plan, generous amounts of leave and holiday time, and eligibility for health insurance coverage. Your total compensation is more than the dollars you receive in your paycheck. To help demonstrate the value of working for the State of Missouri, we have created an interactive Total Compensation Calculator. This tool provides a comprehensive view of benefits and more that are offered to prospective employees. The Total Compensation Calculator and other applicant resources can be found here.

Base starting salary is $1,570.32 bi-monthly. A bi-monthly stipend of $562.50 may be available if applicant is hired to work for two members.

The salary reflected in the job posting does not represent differentials such as shift, premium pay for certain duties, and time-of-service pay.

Please send resume, application, and letter of interest electronically through MoCareers or to houseadmin@house.mo.gov. Documents may also be submitted to the MO House of Representatives, 201 W. Capitol Avenue, Room B22, Jefferson City, MO 65101, Attention: Legislator Assistant. Additional information may be found on the House website at www.house.mo.gov.
