• Strong organizational and time-management skills with experience prioritizing tasks effectively to meet statutory, departmental, and tribunal-imposed deadlines.
• Ability to apply sound judgment and exercise problem-solving skills to handle non-routine issues.
• Experience performing data entry.
• Excellent verbal communication skills to communicate clearly and professionally with Tribunal members, stakeholders, and to speak confidently before a large audience.
• Superior attention to detail to work efficiently with a high level of quality and accuracy.
• Ability to manage confidential and politically sensitive material in an appropriate and professional manner.
• Extensive experience providing analytical and administrative support for quasi-judicial hearings in a busy, fast-paced office environment.
• Experience working with Microsoft Office Suite (Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, and Excel) or compatible programs.
• Excellent interpersonal skills, including the ability to build relationships and interact effectively with team members, clients, and the general public.
• Experience managing and processing cash transactions.

Desired:

• Experience working with an adjudicative or quasi-judicial body, board, commission, or a legal firm or provincial or federal Department of Justice.
• Experience interacting and liaising effectively with the public, legal professionals, municipal officials, and other stakeholders.
