What You Bring to the Table

When a group is in a discussion about energetic and fun people, your name is always the first one to come up. In addition to being fun, everyone is continually amazed at your ability to organize activities and events so that they always go off without a catch.

You thrive in a fast-paced environment and embrace change. Although your plans are thorough, you are able to adapt to real-life situations with a calm energy to ensure the best outcome for an event, meeting, and other necessary activities.

You will be expected to provide strategic support in addition to tactical, reactive support for the CEO and Senior Leadership team. You will also have an opportunity to carve out and own projects that align with your interests and career path goals. The potential responsibility scope and growth in this role is limitless. We aim for this role to grow as our company scales. This position will report to the CEO for Executive Assistant responsibilities, and dotted line reporting to VP People for staffing and onboarding responsibilities.

You will be one of the first points of contact for our CEO and the Executive team—so we are looking for an applicant who demonstrates professionalism, has excellent communication skills, and has an approachable demeanour. This role is dynamic and can change day to day, so a “see it, grab it, do it” attitude is key!
