Career Change - Need a more "internal contact only" position - Titles to look for?

Due to some mental health concerns (I'm working on it!) it's becoming increasingly clear to me that I would benefit from a job where my contact with people outside the organization I work for is limited. I've been an admin assistant at my current job for 2 years, and prior to that, I was an assistant to 3 busy merchandisers (essentially, I did data entry & a few other duties). I have a BA in English, and some other, random, work experiences. I tend to refer to myself as a generalist, and a quick learner.

I could probably do WFH, but contact with people is helpful to me mental health (& my cats would drive me INSANE in 2 months). I know my current employer won't be able to help me with this, unfortunately, because I love the office I'm in.

Any suggestions on possible job titles to look for when searching for a new position?

    In our organization, this would be a Business Administrator or Business Support. They are essentially an Administrative person where your 'customer' is a department of people that need help with coordinating tasks/events.

    Thank you! I didn't know this was a thing. I'll check it out.
