New Glasgow, 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 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.

**As a Administrative Assistant your responsibilities will include**:

- Working closely with the senior admin, and shared workflow to complete all administrative tasks in a timely manner and with great attention to detail
- Being efficient with filing, faxing, scanning and photocopying
- Having the opportunity to work on projects with others within the Nova Scotia Business Unit (NSBU)
- Managing electronic and paper-based client files
- Preparing documents including correspondence, reports and presentations

**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? Like the colour purple? Great. Here's a few more boxes we’re also hoping you can tick**:

- Advanced working knowledge of MS Suite, Visio, Adobe Acrobat, social media etc.
- Working knowledge of STAR, D365 and Caseware would be considered an asset, but full training will be provided

- Strong negotiation skills with a problem-solving attitude
- Innovative thinking, sound judgment, and adaptable to service needs
- Proven experience in providing exceptional client service
