Executive Assistant

This is a standout opportunity for a polished, proactive Executive Assistant to step into a highly visible role supporting senior leadership at a successful, fast-growing global company headquartered in Vancouver.

If you enjoy being at the centre of the action, thrive in fast-paced environments, and want a role where you are truly relied upon as a strategic partner, not just administrative support then this one is worth a closer look.

Our client is a well-established, high-growth organization with a strong global footprint and an exceptional leadership team. Headquartered in Vancouver, BC, they operate in a specialized, high-impact sector and are known for innovation, collaboration, and thoughtful leadership. This is the kind of environment where strong EAs are trusted, respected, and given room to grow.

This is a true right-hand Executive Assistant role. You’ll support senior leaders in a complex, multi-time-zone environment, helping them stay focused, prepared, and effective. The role offers variety, autonomy, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on how the leadership team operates.

What you’ll be doing:

• Owning complex, multi-time-zone calendars and high-stakes meetings.
• Managing executive communications and acting as a key liaison internally and externally.
• Coordinating detailed international travel and high-profile events.
• Preparing executive-level documents, presentations, and materials.
• Identifying inefficiencies and improving processes before problems arise.
• Acting as a steady, trusted partner to senior leadership and mentoring junior admins where needed.

You’re a confident, detail-oriented EA who thrives in fast-moving, high-expectation environments. You anticipate needs, stay calm under pressure, and take pride in running a tight operation.

What they’re looking for:

• Typically 8+ years supporting senior executives (flexibility for exceptional profiles).
• Experience in a structured, high-growth organization.
• Background in tech, SaaS, fintech, consulting, or similarly fast-paced environments is ideal.
• Experience working within a larger EA team (not the sole EA for an entire company).
• High emotional intelligence, discretion, and strong communication skills.

$90,000 – $100,000 CAD + equity, depending on experience, plus:

• Comprehensive health & dental benefits.
• RRSP match.
• Unlimited PTO (minimum 20 days).
• Flexible hybrid work model.

Vancouver, BC (Metro Vancouver). Hybrid role with a minimum of two days in-office per week for candidates within 80km. Some early or late meetings are required to support global time zones.
