Toronto, Canada AptPay Inc Full time

**Position Title: Executive Assistant/ Personal Assistant to the CEO**

This is a position with a great variety of tasks where every day is a bit different and new While you will be handling tasks that are administrative in nature and keeping our CEO and his calendar organized, there will also be many tasks which are hands-on, roll-up-your sleeves - the type that fit into a category of “anything and everything in a day’s work”. This means you could potentially be a salesperson, marketing assistant, travel agent, customer service representative, or many other things all in one day Due to the nature of the role, flexibility in scheduling may be required to respond to urgent requests from time to time. You can expect to do anything and everything that can save the time of the CEO.

If you have a mindset that no task is too small or too big for you to do, don’t think of tasks as “not my area”, but rather “why not?”, and have a key willingness to expand your skillset, this might just be the position of you. You should enjoy working in a flat organizational structure with a small team within a more unstructured office environment. A sense of tasteful humour and the ability to deal with ambiguity is a must.
