Executive Assistant

What it’s like to be a Northbridge Executive Assistant:

As the Executive Assistant supporting the Vice Presidents in the Western Canada region, you will play a pivotal role in supporting the efficient and strategic operation of the regional portfolio.

Our Executive Assistants work hard to ensure that administrative assistance and secretarial support is provided to our Senior executives. They organize daily calendars, schedule meetings both internally and externally, and organize a wide range of other logistics, from travel to catering.  They also take part in meetings; preparing agendas, taking minutes, and preparing materials.

They are passionate about not only keeping things organized, but keeping our Executive staff well-informed and prepared.  This means monitoring budgets, highlighting variances, and working with external vendors.  They are also strong relationship-builders; working with various other members of the Northbridge leadership team to ensure that all correspondence and information is up-to-date and accurate.

Our EAs also manage and coordinate special projects, including research and reporting, while also managing the administration and communication of these projects.
