Original job description

Who We Are

Skawahlook First Nation (Sq’ewá:lxw) is a small, close-knit Nation of approximately 100 members, located between Hope and Agassiz in the Fraser River Valley. This is our home (La:lem), and all members belong here as family.

We are a progressive First Nation working together toward a healthy, proud, and prosperous community for present and future generations. We support members to build self-sufficiency through empowerment, capacity-building, goal-setting, and the celebration of success.

We care for and protect our land (tem:exw), water (qo), and air, and generously welcome visitors to our territory - “Ey te sqwalewal chet aw sut maxwi temexw cht” (“We’re glad to see you in our land”) - as we continue to claim and walk the path to reconciliation. Our work is grounded in collaboration, mutual support, and shared responsibility as we work together to serve the community. As we advance community and economic development initiatives, including the Ruby Creek Art Gallery and a large hall and banquet facility, Sq’ewá:lxw offers a dynamic and growth-oriented work environment.

Role Overview

Reporting to the Managing Director, the Senior Executive Assistant is a senior and trusted role within the Sq’ewá:lxw administration office. The position provides confidential executive and administrative support while helping ensure the office runs smoothly, priorities are tracked, and important matters continue to move forward.

This role is especially important in a small, collaborative office environment where continuity, follow-through, and sound judgment matter. Working closely with the Managing Director, Chief and Council, staff, committees, community members, and external partners, the Senior Executive Assistant helps coordinate information flow, manage sensitive priorities, and provide delegated operational and supervisory backup when needed.

This is primarily an in-person role based at the Administration Office, with occasional travel for meetings and the flexibility needed to support community-based activities in a remote location.

What This Role Carries

Executive Administration, Office Coordination, and Meeting Support

Provide confidential executive and administrative support to the Managing Director, including scheduling, correspondence, document preparation, records management, follow-up tracking, and coordination of daily priorities.

Support the smooth operation of the administration office by monitoring supplies, equipment, facilities, meeting spaces, records, and other Nation assets, and coordinating maintenance or follow-up as needed.

Assist with the logistics, administration, and organization of staff travel and training, including registration, accommodations, travel arrangements, and allowances.

Prepare and edit agendas, minutes, meeting materials, letters, reports, briefing notes, memoranda, forms, funding proposals, and other administrative documents as directed.

Organize meetings and events by booking rooms, inviting participants, preparing materials, arranging refreshments, setting up meeting spaces, and documenting required follow-up.

Coordinate administrative projects and follow up on assigned action items, deadlines, approvals, and information requests on behalf of the Managing Director.

Executive Coordination and Operational Backup

Provide delegated supervisory and operational backup to the Managing Director when requested, including supporting day-to-day direction to staff, triaging operational issues, coordinating urgent follow-up, and helping ensure priorities continue to move forward in the Managing Director’s absence or during periods of high demand.

Act as a central administrative contact for the Managing Director by coordinating information flow, tracking priorities, and ensuring timely responses to internal and external requests.

Support coordination between departments by gathering information, preparing materials, distributing updates, and helping ensure administrative follow-through on operational priorities.

Maintain organized executive and administrative files, correspondence, meeting records, contact lists, forms, templates, and tracking systems in accordance with Nation policies and confidentiality requirements.

Exercise sound judgment and initiative in identifying administrative risks, overdue follow-up items, information gaps, or service continuity issues, and bring forward recommended next steps to the Managing Director.

Support to Committees, Nation-Owned Businesses, and Special Initiatives

Provide administrative support to Chief and Council and Sq’ewá:lxw committees, including preparing materials, attending meetings, taking minutes, corresponding with members, and tracking follow-up.

Review relevant committee, governance, business, and administrative documents to support accurate meeting preparation, minutes, correspondence, and follow-up.

Provide administrative coordination and document support to Nation-owned businesses, committees, and special initiatives as assigned, including preparing materials, tracking follow-up items, and coordinating information requests.

What You Bring

Executive Support, Coordination, and Ways of Working

Ability to communicate effectively, both verbally and in writing.

Advanced organizational, prioritization, and follow-through skills, with the ability to manage competing executive and operational priorities with limited direction.

Strong administrative and computer skills, including Microsoft Office, electronic filing systems, scheduling tools, databases, document preparation software, meeting coordination, records tracking, and office coordination.

Willingness and ability to learn new software applications as needed to stay current in the position.

General knowledge of social media management, including the ability to prepare and update basic posts.

Ability to conduct research using the web and other information sources to support administrative, funding, and briefing needs.

Ability to prepare clear, accurate, and professional executive-level documents, including correspondence, reports, briefing notes, agendas, minutes, and follow-up trackers.

Sound judgment, discretion, tact, and professionalism when handling confidential information, sensitive matters, delegated supervisory support, operational backup responsibilities, and records, materials, and communications concerning Membership, staff, and Sq’ewá:lxw information.

Ability to anticipate needs, identify emerging issues, coordinate timely follow-up across departments, and maintain appropriate boundaries and authority levels.

Ability to build strong, positive relationships with community members, staff, partners, visitors, and others who do business with the Nation.

Knowledge of First Nation governance, community protocols, and meeting practices, including quorum, motions, resolutions, and the confidential handling of Indigenous community, Membership, staff, and Nation records.

Education, Experience, and Professional Preparation

At least five years of progressively responsible administrative experience, including at least two years providing senior administrative or executive-level support.

Diploma or certificate in Business Administration, Office Administration, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.

Experience coordinating confidential matters, executive calendars, meeting materials, records, action items, and cross-departmental follow-up with a high degree of independence.

Experience providing informal leadership, delegated supervisory support, office coordination, or operational backup is an asset.

Experience supporting senior leadership in a First Nation, Indigenous organization, government, not-for-profit, or similarly complex service environment is strongly preferred.

Intermediate to advanced computer skills, including Microsoft Office, Outlook calendar management, electronic filing, document formatting, and records tracking.

Valid B.C. Class 5 Driver’s License.

Knowledge of Sq’ewá:lxw First Nation and Stó:lō people and culture, as well as other local and regional First Nations; respect for, and cultural appreciation of, First Nations.

What We Offer
