As a member of the FNESC administrative team, **the Administrative Assistant, Reception and Programs will primarily provide administrative services and support for FNESC front desk and administrative support to the Programs area**. Since 1992, FNESC, led by a strong and diverse board of over 125 First Nations community representatives, has worked in partnership with the First Nations School Association (FNSA), and the Indigenous Adult Higher Learning Association (IAHLA). Communications, research, partnership-building, resource development and advocacy are all part of the work we do to advance issues in First Nations education.

**What We Offer**:

- The salary for this position is $44,990.00 per year;
- Well above-average benefits plan that is 100% paid for by FNESC, that includes: extended health care, dental care, and vision care;
- Well above-average employer matched pension plan;

**What We’re Looking For**:

- A minimum of Grade 12 education plus some equivalent combination of experience and education (Office Administration, finance, etc.,);
- Some clerical and/or secretarial experience in an office environment;
- A basic understanding of First Nations history and culture, and ideally some knowledge of education issues;
- A strong understanding of privacy and confidentiality combined with the ability to maintain confidentiality on all personal and organizational information;
- Excellent organizational and office administration skills;
- Strong record keeping and inventory skills;
- Strong data entry skills and attention to detail;
- Ability to multi-task, be flexible and work well under pressure with tight deadlines;
- Proficient skills in using Microsoft Office software, including Excel.

We offer full-time meaningful work in a professional, friendly, and diverse office environment which is easily accessible by transit and right next door to Park Royal Mall. We enjoy having occasional lunches together as a team - pizza is one of our favorites.

This is a full-time, permanent position with most of the work being done between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. However, the nature of this position is such that occasional work outside of those hours, including weekend work, may be required.

**FNESC requires that all FNESC staff be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 for two reasons: First, because FNESC takes its responsibility to create and maintain a healthy workplace very seriously. And, second, because many of our staff attend First Nations communities in-person. Some First Nations have unique requirements and vulnerabilities related to communicable diseases like COVID-19, and FNESC always respects the needs of First Nations.**
