As a receptionist working for an oil and gas company, your responsibilities are to maintain order and complete secretarial tasks that keep the office or worksite functioning. Your duties may have you answer phones, arrange office functions, greet customers, schedule meetings, monitor inventory, respond to emails, assist management, maintain files, and prepare statistical reports. You may also handle complaints and inquiries from a client, employee, or regulatory official. An oil and gas receptionist can work from a local oil and gas company or at an off-shore facility. You may also be able to find positions at satellite offices.
