Kingston, Ontario, Canada Patry Group of Companies Full time

About Patry Group of Companies

Based in Kingston, Ontario, Patry Group of Companies is one of Ontario's largest and most

innovative developers of wood frame residential and commercial development projects. Our

mission is to continue to build on our reputation for excellence in construction, property

management, and customer satisfaction, as we broaden the scope of our operation and

incorporate many new, exciting projects.

Building on the unparalleled growth of our business in recent years, we have created the

position of Chief of Staff to enhance our exceptional leadership team. Reporting directly to the

CEO, this exciting new role will see the successful candidate perform administrative and

practical support duties for the CEO in particular, and senior management more generally.

This important role will require someone who is proactive, discreet, adaptable, highly organized,

and a superb communicator who thrives on building a culture of collaboration and success.

What we're looking for:

- A dynamic self-starter to work closely with the CEO to oversee the creation and

implementation of all corporate strategies and business places, from conception to

realization, as well as identifying and implementing refinements in the organization's

structure and practices to improve efficiency.

- Someone to regularly assess the employee base to find and address any knowledge

and skill gaps, to maximize the effectiveness of each aspect of our team and create a

plan to enhance their professional development.

- An excellent communicator to maintain information flow between the CEO and

management, staff and all stakeholders to ensure consistency of messaging and

outcomes.

- A relationship builder, who can seamlessly shift into the role as a surrogate for the CEO

in day-to-day corporate operations, as well as for presentations and executive meetings.

- A consummate professional who can work alongside senior managers and department

heads, on behalf of the CEO, to ensure adherence to timelines, that employee well-

being is a priority and that corporate policies are followed.

- Organizational acumen: a stickler for documentation, a planner who can pull together

meetings and special presentations, and someone who can develop a 'Jack of All

Trades' knowledge of the entire operation to act as a resource for staff, management

and outside stakeholders/clients, and speak on behalf of the CEO when necessary.

What you bring to the table:

- An MBA or equivalent degree.

- Seven to 10 years' experience working for a robust, growing, medium-sized company in

a management role, with preference to candidates with time spent in the construction,

real estate or development sectors.

- The proven ability to speak and act on behalf of an entire organization to management,

staff, outside stakeholders and the general public, including acting as a representative at

meetings, conferences or special events.

- Some experience as a consultant, with a focus on operational analysis and systems

management, including data and budget management.

- Demonstrated success leading and directing multiple teams and departments, while also

leading organization-wide strategic initiatives that seek to enhance collaboration and

efficiencies.

- A proven history of project management success.

- Superior written and verbal communication skills, especially in the areas of corporate

reporting and interdepartmental communications.

- An agile and adaptive business mind and a reputation as an innovative and creative

problem solver.
