Administrative Assistant Jobs in Kansas: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a administrative assistant in Kansas?

Kansas does not require a state-issued license to work as an administrative assistant, so entry typically starts with a high school diploma or an associate degree in business administration or office technology from a community college such as Washburn University or Johnson County Community College. Employers favor candidates who have completed coursework in office software, business communications, or records management, and certifications like the Certified Administrative Professional credential can strengthen a Kansas applicant's profile significantly.

How much do administrative assistants make in Kansas?

Administrative assistants in Kansas earn a median of about $64,860 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $48,160 for the lowest 10% to over $90,970 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire administrative assistants in Kansas?

Employers hiring administrative assistants in Kansas right now include State of Kansas, SSC Advisors, and Wichita Public Schools, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Kansas's mix of state government agencies in Topeka, healthcare systems like the University of Kansas Health System, and corporate headquarters in Wichita means openings appear across a wide range of sectors and organization sizes.

Which Kansas cities have the most administrative assistant jobs?

Wichita, Lawrence, and Overland Park account for the most administrative assistant openings in Kansas. Wichita leads because of its concentration of corporate headquarters and healthcare employers, Topeka draws heavily from state government and regulatory agencies, and the Kansas side of the Kansas City metro benefits from proximity to major regional employers and financial services firms with large administrative support teams.

Are there remote administrative assistant jobs in Kansas?

Yes, and they are more common than in many fields given that much of the work involves digital communication, scheduling, and document management. About 14% of administrative assistant openings tied to Kansas are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting growing employer flexibility for desk-based support roles. Tasks tied to physical mail, in-person scheduling, or on-site office coordination tend to remain on-site, while roles focused on data entry, correspondence, and calendar management are the most likely to offer remote arrangements.

How can I get hired as a administrative assistant in Kansas with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying for receptionist, office coordinator, or data entry clerk roles at large Kansas employers such as state agencies in Topeka or hospital systems in Wichita, where internal mobility into administrative assistant positions is common. Community colleges like Butler Community College offer short-term office technology programs that signal readiness to employers. Earning a Certified Administrative Professional credential or building proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite gives candidates without direct experience a concrete edge in Kansas listings.
