    Description

    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 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 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.

    As a Senior Administrative Assistant your responsibilities will include:

    • Working independently and within a team environment to support the External Client Services team within the Business Unit, Office, and/or Service line to produce high quality client deliverables

    • Format and assemble printed and electronic financial statements in compliance with Firm standards, ensuring a high level of attention to detail, proof reading, and ensuring timely delivery

    • Train and mentor new colleagues in the role of Administrative Assistant

    • Ability to be proactive in managing workflow and tasks associated with the day to day needs of partners, practitioners, and clients

    • Entering and maintaining client data using Microsoft Dynamics 365 software, creating jobs in D365, rolling forward of jobs/files, and archiving as appropriate for the engagement

    • General administrative duties including, but not limited to answering and transferring incoming calls, filing, photocopying, scanning, e-faxing, mailing, and couriers

    • Data entry and maintenance of paper and electronic files, in accordance with the Firm's document retention and destruction policies and procedures

    • Preparing and editing correspondence, reports, proposals, and other documents

    • Provide billing support using Grant Thornton's systems and in accordance with the terms of the engagement including preparing invoices to clients, as well as following up on AR when appropriate

    • Scanning documents and embedding in electronic file, sending, and receiving documents electronically to clients through various secure file transfer platforms, ensuring confidentiality of sensitive information

    • Managing communications, expense administration, and travel arrangements on behalf of team leadership

    • Supporting the Firm's professional image and culture by demonstrating professional behaviour and building positive professional relationships

    • Other duties as required
    Be Grant Thornton

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.
