Original job description

Who we are
You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Doane Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ about 3000 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

As an Administrative Assistant your responsibilities will include:
• Working independently and within a team environment to support our client service colleagues to produce high quality client deliverables
• Assemble T1 personal tax returns as well as other Canada Revenue forms including T2s, T3s, T4s and T5s

• Using Microsoft D365 application software to set up new clients as well as track, maintain and report on client relationships
• General administrative duties including, but not limited to filing, photocopying, scanning, and faxing
• Ensuring Reception is opened/closed appropriately
• Answering the software-based telephone in a professional manner, and transferring the caller to the appropriate business unit or colleague
• Greeting and welcoming each guest in a friendly and inviting manner
• Ordering office supplies
• Receiving and securing cheques, debit/credit card payments
• Maintaining proper office appearance and cleanliness
• Managing boardroom bookings and catering requirements including set-up, and clean-up for meetings and office events
• Aiding with the preparation of meeting materials (i.e. presentations, handouts etc)
• Managing mail and courier requirements for delivery and pickup

Doane Grant Thornton
If you’re a bit like us, you’re driven to connect with how others are feeling and thinking. Here we walk in others shoes before taking action. Just imagine being part of a team that puts “we before me”, where flexAbility is a mindset, and where you trust your colleagues to have your back. At Doane Grant Thornton, you’ll work with inspiring leaders who support your development, both personally and professionally. This is a place where your insatiable curiosity enables you to think, see and hear from a variety of perspectives, a place where every day is different and having the courage to grow is part of who you are. And when all this comes together, well that’s when the magic happens!
