Halifax, 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 an Administrative Assistant [Temporary] your responsibilities will include**:

- Providing invoice support using Grant Thornton’s software systems and in accordance with the terms of our engagement letters.
- This role will include running billing reports, drafting invoices, and meeting with the leadership teams either in person or virtually to finalize and submit invoices.

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

- 2 years of administrative experience
- Excellent data entry skills and high attention to detail
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Ability to work under pressure with conflicting deadlines and frequent interruptions
- Computer savvy - ability to learn new software programs

At Grant Thornton we’re focused on making a difference in the lives of our clients, our colleagues and our communities. That’s our purpose. Or, as we like to say, living our purple.
