We are looking for an experienced Administrative Assistant to support our Operations leadership team. This is a busy, hands on role for someone who is exceptionally organized, anticipates what needs to happen next and takes pride in making things run smoothly. You will manage the day to day logistics around our Operations leadership team, including calendars, travel, meetings, events and team activities. The goal is simple: keep our leaders organized, protect their time and make it easier for them to focus on leading the business.

What you'll do:

Keep our leaders organized

• Manage calendars and scheduling across four Vice Presidents
• Coordinate meetings across a large and geographically dispersed organization
• Proactively identify and resolve scheduling conflicts
• Coordinate travel, accommodations and itineraries
• Complete expense reports and routine administrative requirements
• Help leaders stay ahead of upcoming meetings, commitments and deadlines

Make meetings run well

• Coordinate recurring Operations leadership meetings, planning sessions and off sites
• Own the logistics, including rooms, catering, technology, invitations and materials
• Help organize agendas and distribute materials in advance
• Coordinate follow ups and action items when required
• Host visiting leaders and teams when they are in the North York office

Support the Operations team experience

• Coordinate team events, recognition activities, celebrations and engagement initiatives
• Help organize larger Operations meetings and leadership gatherings
• Be a visible and helpful point of contact for the Operations leadership team
• Work closely with other Executive Assistants and support teams across Lifemark
• Step in and solve the everyday logistical issues that inevitably come with supporting a large, busy team

What we're looking for:

• 5+ years of experience supporting senior leaders or a busy leadership team
• Excellent calendar, scheduling and organizational skills
• Strong judgment and the ability to work independently
• Someone who anticipates needs rather than waiting to be asked
• Comfortable supporting several leaders with competing priorities
• Highly responsive, reliable and detail oriented
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills
• Discretion and good judgment with confidential information
• Tech savvy and curious about new tools, with strong proficiency in Outlook, Teams, OneNote and Microsoft Office
• Comfortable using AI tools such as ChatGPT to work smarter, improve efficiency and reduce administrative work
• Naturally looks for better ways to organize information, automate routine work and make the leadership team more efficient
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where priorities can change quickly

You’ll be great in this role if...

You like being the person who knows what is happening, what needs to happen next and who needs to be where. You are naturally organized, calm under pressure and comfortable nudging senior people when something needs their attention. Most importantly, you get satisfaction from making a team run better. When you are doing your job well, four busy executives have more time to lead, meetings are organized, travel works, people know where they need to be and the Operations team feels well supported.
