This is a hybrid role based in our Toronto office, working with leaders across Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia and South Africa and handling confidential matters with discretion.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with the Interim CEO/COO to set priorities, filter decisions and protect their time, making sure the right issues reach them at the right moment.

• Track progress against company objectives and flag risks and blockers early.
• Handle confidential information, including unreleased financial or transaction information, with discretion.
• This position is hybrid, with regular in-office presence at our Toronto office.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• Minimum of 8 years of experience in strategy, operations, business management or senior executive support.
• Demonstrated experience supporting C-suite executives, including calendar, travel and meeting management.
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional projects through influence rather than formal authority.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to turn complex information into clear recommendations.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, including accurate minute-taking and executive-level presentations.
• Exceptional judgment and discretion with confidential and market-sensitive information.
• Strong organizational skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and tight deadlines.
