Role Responsibilities

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same, this role offers a unique opportunity to support senior executives, influence strategic outcomes and be at the center of government operations and innovation.

This is an exciting opportunity to help establish and shape two new Assistant Deputy Minister (ADM) Offices, developing the processes, practices and ways of working that will support their success.

This role is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of both ADM offices, ensuring the effective management of schedules, priorities and administrative processes.

The Executive Assistant acts as a key liaison between the ADM offices, the Deputy Minister’s Office, senior ministry officials and external stakeholders to coordinate information flow, resolve administrative issues, and ensure the ADMs are well informed and prepared for meetings, events and decision-making activities. The position manages divisional action requests and ATIA requests, coordinates special projects and operational initiatives, and supports the resolution of emerging issues. Additionally, the incumbent is responsible for administering a range of financial and contractual activities, including time reporting, invoice tracking and payment, and contract coordination, ensuring compliance with Government of Alberta legislation, regulations, policies and directives.

As the successful candidate, your main responsibilities will include:

Provide executive and administrative support to two Assistant Deputy Ministers and their executive teams.
Manage complex calendars, meetings, travel arrangements and executive priorities.
Coordinate communication and information flow between ADM Offices, the Deputy Minister’s Office and key stakeholders.
Prepare, coordinate and distribute briefing materials, agendas and meeting documentation.
Lead the tracking, quality control, and timely completion of Action Requests (ARs) and other divisional correspondence.
Manage confidential information and respond proactively to emerging issues and priorities.
Develop and maintain administrative processes, records and tracking systems to support office operations.
Coordinate financial and procurement activities, including invoices, expenses, contracts and purchasing.
Support divisional projects, ATIA requests, HR administration and cross-branch initiatives.
Provide operational advice, problem-solving and coordination to ensure the effective functioning of both ADM Offices.
