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.

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

- 2-3+ years of administrative experience in a busy professional services environment (public practice would be an asset); working with multiple projects and meeting (at times competing) tight deadlines

- Reputation and demonstrated track record of working independently, showing initiative and eagerness to learn, a continuous improvement mindset, and a bias for action
- Experience editing and formatting financial statements (in particular using Caseware) would be an asset
- Experience with CRM tool would be an asset
- Ability to work for several people at the same time
- Solid business acumen, management, and problem-solving skills
