Original job description

The Opportunity

JGL Group of Companies is seeking a Director, Executive Office to serve as a trusted partner to the CEO and a key internal connection across the organization.

This is not a traditional executive support role. While strong organization and executive coordination are important, success will be driven equally by judgment, relationships, communication, and the ability to understand how people and priorities move across a complex organization.

The Director will work closely with the CEO and leaders throughout JGL to create alignment, maintain momentum on priorities, improve communication and follow-through, and help ensure the CEO’s time and attention remain focused where they can have the greatest impact.

This role requires someone who can build trust quickly, read people and situations well, and develop strong working relationships across different personalities and businesses. They must be warm and approachable while also confident, persistent, and comfortable respectfully pushing when something needs to move forward.

The right person will be strategically minded, highly intuitive, and able to balance the details of today with the bigger picture of where the organization is going.

About JGL

JGL Group of Companies is a diversified organization with operations across agriculture, livestock marketing, commodities, financial services, capital investments, feedlot operations, and related businesses throughout Western Canada and the United States.

Built on trusted relationships, entrepreneurial thinking, and continuous improvement, JGL works across its businesses to create long-term value and sustainable growth.

Key Responsibilities

CEO Partnership & Strategic Support

Develop a strong, trusted working relationship with the CEO and a deep understanding of his priorities, leadership style, and expectations.
Act as a sounding board and trusted partner, bringing perspective, judgment, and thoughtful challenge when appropriate.
Help translate priorities and conversations into clear actions, commitments, and follow-through.
Anticipate needs, identify potential gaps, and proactively bring forward solutions.
Protect and optimize the CEO’s time while maintaining awareness of what is happening across the organization.
Keep priorities moving through consistent, respectful, and persistent follow-up.

Internal Relationships & Alignment

Build trusted relationships with the Executive Leadership Team and leaders across JGL’s businesses.
Serve as an important internal connection between the CEO and the broader organization.
Develop a strong understanding of JGL’s businesses, people, priorities, and organizational dynamics.
Help ensure information, decisions, and priorities are communicated effectively to the right people.
Navigate different personalities, perspectives, and priorities with diplomacy and emotional intelligence.
Identify opportunities to improve communication, alignment, and collaboration across the Group.

Executive Office & Organizational Effectiveness

Manage and prioritize the CEO’s schedule, commitments, meetings, travel, and competing demands.
Coordinate leadership and Board meetings, strategic planning sessions, and other key activities.
Prepare executive communications, presentations, briefing materials, and meeting packages.
Track decisions, commitments, deadlines, and action items to ensure follow-through.
Develop and improve systems and processes that strengthen the effectiveness of the Executive Office.
Lead special projects, strategic initiatives, and confidential assignments on behalf of the CEO.

Philanthropy & Community Investment

Facilitate JGL’s family and corporate philanthropy and community investment activities on behalf of the CEO.
Review requests and gather relevant information to support thoughtful decision-making.
Coordinate meetings, approvals, contributions, correspondence, budgets, documentation, and follow-up.
Build and maintain relationships with community organizations and internal stakeholders.
Track commitments and provide updates on community investment activities.
Work collaboratively with Marketing on sponsorship initiatives, while Marketing retains ownership of business- and brand-driven sponsorships.

What You Bring

We are looking for someone who combines strong executive experience with exceptional interpersonal skills and business judgment.

You are someone who:

Builds trust naturally and develops strong relationships across all levels of an organization.
Is warm, approachable, and collaborative, while confident and firm when required.
Understands when to push, when to listen, and when to adjust your approach.
Is persistent and follows through without creating unnecessary friction.
Thinks strategically and connects individual conversations and decisions to the bigger picture.
Reads people and situations well and adapts accordingly.
Communicates clearly, thoughtfully, and with discretion.
Is comfortable respectfully challenging senior leaders and asking difficult questions.
Anticipates what is needed rather than waiting to be asked.
Remains calm and solutions-focused when priorities shift.
Understands that relationships and credibility are essential to getting things done.

Qualifications & Experience

Significant progressive experience supporting or working closely with a CEO, President, Owner, Founder, or senior executive team.
Experience in a complex, entrepreneurial, multi-business, or fast-moving organization.
Strong business acumen and an ability to understand organizational priorities beyond the Executive Office.
Demonstrated experience managing competing priorities, confidential information, executive communications, and strategic initiatives.
Strong relationship-building, communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
Experience supporting Board governance and executive leadership activities is considered an asset.
Agriculture, agribusiness, organizational growth, or acquisition experience is considered an asset.

Why Join JGL

This is an opportunity to become a trusted partner within a growing and diversified organization.

The Director, Executive Office will have visibility across JGL and the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with leaders throughout the Group. Success will come from understanding the organization, earning trust, creating alignment, and helping people and priorities move forward.

For the right person, this is a role where judgment, relationships, persistence, and the ability to develop a strong working relationship with the CEO will matter just as much as technical experience.

Apply Today

If you are an experienced executive professional who thrives in a high-trust, fast-moving environment and is ready to become a strategic partner to the CEO, we would like to hear from you.

Please submit your resume and cover letter to hr@jgl.ca with “Director, Executive Office” in the subject line.
