Georgetown, 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.

- Working independently and within a team environment to support the External Client Services team within the Business Unit, Office and/or Service Line to produce high quality client deliverables
- Format and assemble electronic and/or paper financial statements (or other client deliverables) in compliance with Firm standards, ensuring a high level of attention to detail, proof reading, and ensuring timely delivery

- 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
- Other duties as required

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