We employ over 3000 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.

• Managing communications, expense administration, and travel arrangements on behalf of team leadership
• Coordinating external/internal appointments, meetings, facility/room reservations and catering
• Supporting the Firm’s professional image and culture by demonstrating professional behaviour and building positive professional relationships
