Job Description

Excellent Opportunity for a Senior Executive Assistant in a High-Growth Industry

Are you a proactive, detail-oriented Executive Assistant looking for an exciting challenge in a well-established yet fast-evolving organization? This is a rare opportunity to support senior leadership in a dynamic, high-impact role within a thriving global company.

Who - the Company

Our client is a highly successful, rapidly growing company headquartered in Metro Vancouver, with operations across North America and internationally. The organization operates in a specialized and high-growth sector, known for innovation, collaboration, and a forward-thinking leadership team. Their work environment is fast-paced and engaging, offering excellent career progression opportunities for top-tier professionals.

What - the Role

This is a well-rounded Senior Executive Assistant role, providing strategic support to key senior leaders in a complex and fast-moving environment. The EA will act as a trusted right-hand partner, ensuring seamless executive operations and maximizing leadership efficiency.

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Calendar & Meeting Management: Coordinate complex, multi-time-zone schedules, prepare agendas, and track action items.
  • Communication & Correspondence: Manage high-level email communications, draft responses, and liaise with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Travel & Event Coordination: Plan and execute detailed travel itineraries, logistics, and high-profile events.
  • Document & Presentation Preparation: Support the creation of executive-level materials, reports, and presentations.
  • Process Optimization: Identify operational inefficiencies, implement solutions, and improve administrative workflows.
  • Leadership Support: Act as an informal mentor to junior administrative staff and contribute to a culture of collaboration.
Who - the Candidate

The ideal candidate is a highly organized, tech-savvy, and adaptable Senior Executive Assistant with a track record of supporting C-suite or senior leadership in a complex, fast-paced environment.

 

Qualifications & Experience:

  • 8+ years of executive support experience is preferred, but flexibility exists for candidates with strong job stability and proven impact in their roles.
  • Experience in a structured, high-growth company is essential.
  • Preferred industry backgrounds: Tech, fintech, SaaS, e-commerce, or management consulting. However, candidates from other fast-paced, scaling industries will be considered.
  • Must have worked in a company that has significantly grown and been part of a larger EA team (not a sole EA supporting an entire company).
  • Strong ability to anticipate needs, prioritize competing demands, and maintain discretion with confidential matters.
How Much

Competitive compensation in the range of $90,000 – $110,000 CAD + Equity, depending on experience and qualifications. The total compensation package includes:

  • Comprehensive health & dental benefits.
  • RRSP match.
  • Unlimited PTO (minimum 20 business days required).
  • Flexible work arrangements.
Where

Metro Vancouver, BC. Hybrid schedule requiring a minimum of two days in-office per week for candidates within an 80km radius. Occasional early morning or evening meetings may be required to accommodate different time zones.
