Executive Assistant and Recruitment Leader
Downtown Vancouver

In Office M-F

The Opportunity
We’re looking for a high-calibre operator to help run and improve the day-to-day business.

This is NOT a traditional EA role. You don’t need recruitment experience. We want someone from corporate executive support, operations, project management, consulting, professional services, technology, or another high-performance setting who knows how to take ownership and get things done and is all about ppl!

You’ll work closely with leadership and our team to manage projects, improve processes, implement AI and technology, and make the business faster, smarter, and more efficient.

Think: part operator, part project manager, part problem-solver.

Importantly, you will be on the phone, running client calls, speaking with candidates, and owning the client and candidate experience from start to finish. You enjoy working with people, building relationships, and making things happen, this is a big part of the role and something you genuinely want to do.

Day to day:

Recruiting, Sourcing, Interviewing, and calling clients and candidates

Own operational priorities and keep the business moving.

Running small teams and getting the most out of them

Manage multiple recruitment and business projects from “we should do this” to “it’s done.”

Keep people, deadlines, deliverables and priorities on track.

Work directly with leadership on key business initiatives.

Identify problems, find solutions and fix things before they become bigger problems.

Manage client and candidate communication and follow-up.

Build processes, improve workflows and create efficiencies.

Use AI and technology to automate repetitive work and improve how we operate.

Work with CRM, ATS, spreadsheets, databases and other business systems.

Keep communication tight and ensure nothing gets dropped or forgotten.





Who You Are
You’re the person people rely on when something important needs to get done.

You are:

Smart — you figure things out.

Proactive — you don’t wait to be told what to do.

Extremely organized — details don’t slip through the cracks.

Tech-savvy — you learn systems quickly and are excited about AI.

A great communicator — equally comfortable with a CEO, client, candidate or teammate.

Business-minded — you understand priorities and make good decisions.

Resourceful — if you don’t know how to do something, you figure it out.

Fast-moving — you have urgency and don’t let things sit.

Hard-working — you bring serious energy and ownership to the job.

You need to be comfortable talking to people AND sitting at a computer getting things done.
