55+ Administrative Assistant - Kelowna, Canada - Cheers Okanagan Tours Ltd.

Description

THE COMPANY
-
Cheers _Okanagan Tours Ltd. was founded in 2016 and quickly vaulted from 124th place to first place on TripAdvisor for tour and transportation experiences. Shamelessly embracing customer enthusiasm as our obsession, consistently going above-and-beyond, and a commitment to hard work, listening, exceeding expectations, respect, and continuous improvement illustrates we care, therefore differentiating our business from the rest.

Helping people to feel cared for, valued, and respected permeates the Cheers culture.

Volunteering our time in remote developing countries plagued by conflict and natural disasters helping victims rebuild their lives was intensely fulfilling.

Later, adopting brother and sister twin orphans, training them up and watching them volunteer in orphanages in Zambia and Haiti as adults was powerfully inspiring.

Much more than just delivering once-in-a-lifetime top-tier wine tours, today we deliver 4 different tiers of tours plus group transportation solutions for wine-lovers, weddings, golfers, sports teams, corporate & private events, air travelers, and ski and snowboard enthusiasts.

Helping winter guests safely to their destinations, we deliver safe, clean, reliable ski transfers to over 50 Heli-Ski, Cat-Ski, Ski Resorts and airports throughout southern British Columbia.

With caring for people as a core value, we're constantly evolving, introducing innovative experiences and services, creating fresh opportunities for employee-partners, scaling into new communities, generating economic development, growing our brand, all-the-while bringing our love, philanthropy, and community-mindedness into every Okanagan community we serve.

Mamas for Mamas, Freedom's Door, Dreams Take Flight, and Cops for Kids are just a few of our favorite charities.
