Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Grant Thornton Full time

Who we are

You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone's friendly and helps each other out? That's like Grant Thornton.

Except here we're all professionals and there isn't a mayor or a general store.

What we're trying to say is that we're a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community.

We employ over 2500 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live.

That's what's most important to us. We're building a thriving organization that's purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

Administrative Support:

  • Managing electronic and paperbased client files
  • Preparing documents including correspondence, reports and presentations
  • Participating in development of internal systems and processes
  • Planning of Specialty Tax Service Line events
  • Preparing for client meetings
  • Managing calendars
  • Managing expense reports
  • Maintaining client database (CaseWare)

Be Grant Thornton
If you're a bit like us, you're driven to connect with how others are feeling and thinking. Here we walk in others shoes before taking action.

Just imagine being part of a team that puts "we before me", where flexAbility is a mindset, and where you trust your colleagues to have your back.

At Grant Thornton, you'll work with inspiring leaders who support your development, both personally and professionally.

This is a place where your insatiable curiosity enables you to think, see and hear from a variety of perspectives, a place where every day is different and having the courage to grow is part of who you are.

And when all this comes together, well that's when the magic happens

Think you've got what it takes to be an Administrative Assistant [12 month contract]? Like the colour purple? Great.

Here's a few more boxes we're also hoping you can tick:

  • Proven work experience in project management
  • Solid organizational skills including attention to detail and multitasking skills
  • Advanced working knowledge of MS Suite, Visio, Adobe Acrobat, social media, etc.
  • A customeroriented attitude
