This concept connects deeply to the idea that, in choosing a career with Yorkville University, you will have the opportunity to push boundaries, flex your creativity and inspire positive change for so many people.

- Connect students to support services.
- Assist students in accessing academic, financial, IT, tutoring, housing and health and wellness services.
- Follow up to ensure the appropriate level of support was provided and to redirect if necessary.
- Other duties as assigned.

What you bring:

- Undergraduate degree and 2+ years working in student services or customer services.
- Passionate about delivering exceptional customer service, which translates to a commitment to student success.
- Collaborative and collegial, driven to accomplish team goals.
- High standards of ethics and integrity and you share our mission to change lives.

- Advanced proficiency in MS Office and ability to quickly learn new systems.
- Detail-oriented with meticulous record keeping skills.
- General openness to working extended hours during peak periods for student registration and reporting.
- Must be accessible to and able to work at our New Westminster campus.

What's in it for you:
