Who We Need

Reporting to the CEO, we are seeking an Executive Assistant who thrives behind the scenes and brings an unwavering commitment to supporting a high-performing leadership team. This newly created role offers the chance to shape processes, implement structure, and contribute to company-wide transformation. You are responsive, composed under pressure, and always thinking two steps ahead. You are a confident communicator who takes ownership, adapts with ease, and never hesitates to pitch in—whether coordinating calendars or welcoming guests at the front desk.

You are comfortable working autonomously, prioritizing competing tasks, and making sound decisions without constant direction. You build strong relationships across all levels of an organization and bring discretion, initiative, and exceptional attention to detail to everything you do.

This is a full-time position, onsite Monday to Thursday in downtown Toronto with remote work on Fridays.

• Manage communications. You will draft and review communications, presentations, and reports, reflecting the voice and priorities of the leadership team.
• Continuous improvement. You will identify opportunities to improve administrative systems and processes and take the initiative to implement solutions.
