Who we are
You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone's friendly and helps each other out? That's like Doane Grant Thornton. Except here we're all professionals and there isn't a mayor or a general store. What we're trying to say is that we're a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ about 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.
As an Administrative Assistant your responsibilities will include:
• Work directly with your Practitioners to help manage their dynamic growing practices.
• Schedule, liaise, and communicate with others, including clients, to proactively prepare information in advance of meetings and deadlines.
• Receive, distribute, redirect, and respond to mail, email, telephone calls, reports, and other material. Ensure appropriate follow up action is taken where required in order to meet deadlines.
• Prepare letters and reports using Firm templates in compliance with Firm standards, including proofreading, reviewing, and verifying quality and content before finalizing any client deliverables.
• Assemble and file year-end and tax packages for clients, including facilitating electronic or in-person signatures and utilizing a variety of filing methods, including e-filing, uploading through portals, and courier.
• Enter and maintain client data using Microsoft Dynamics 365 software, create jobs in D365, roll forward jobs/files, and archive as appropriate for the engagement.
• Manage the billing process for your Practitioners, including drafting and sending invoices to clients.
• Prepare and track expense claim submissions.
• Occasional reception coverage.
• Participate in the development of internal systems and processes and in projects with others within the NSBU.
• Coordinate internal and external meetings, room bookings, video conferences, and in-office events.
