  • 1-3 years’ experience as an administrative assistant or receptionist is an asset.
  • Strong interpersonal, oral and written communication skills with strong attention to detail.
  • Proven ability to communicate effectively and accurately with suppliers, customers and team members with a focus on delivering exceptional customer service.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) with the ability to learn new software as needed.

The Right Fit

The best person for this role will come with a strong work ethic, and a commitment to doing things right.

You live our core values in your personal and work life:

  • Trust – We believe trust is the outcome of mutually respectful relationships which are mindful of each others needs.
