Who We Are

Simon Fraser University is a leading research university, advancing an inclusive and sustainable future. Our purpose – the essence of SFU – is to create and connect knowledge, learning and community for deeper understanding and meaningful impact. We are committed to fostering excellence, innovation, belonging and community in all that we do.

The School of Communication administrative team provides comprehensive academic and operational support to faculty, students, and leadership. Our primary function is to enable teaching, research, and student success through effective coordination of programs, staffing, scheduling, advising, and financial and human resources processes. We work collaboratively across the university to advance SFU’s academic mission, equity commitments, and student-centered priorities. Our team culture is collegial, respectful, and supportive - we value collaboration, shared problem-solving, and continuous learning, and we take pride in fostering a welcoming, inclusive environment where staff contributions are recognized and professional growth is encouraged.
About The Role

The Finance & Administrative Coordinator plays a key role in supporting the School’s academic and research operations. The position manages day‑to‑day financial administration, oversees operating and research budgets, and provides guidance to faculty on grant requirements, spending restrictions, and hiring processes. The role contributes to strategic planning, implements administrative procedures, and supports academic services such as teaching assistant hiring and event coordination. Working closely with CMNS leadership and partners across FCAT, Research Services, Research Accounting, and Financial Services, the Coordinator ensures compliance, accuracy, and efficiency in all financial and administrative activities. Upcoming priorities include process improvements, system updates, and supporting new academic initiatives.

The ideal candidate is a detail‑oriented and proactive administrator with strong financial acumen and a collaborative approach to problem‑solving. They excel at interpreting financial information, managing multiple funding streams, and supporting faculty through complex grant and budget processes. Highly organized and adaptable, they bring excellent communication skills, sound judgment, and the ability to navigate policies with diplomacy and tact. Their technical proficiency, relationship‑building skills, and commitment to service excellence enable them to support both operational needs and academic priorities within a fast‑paced, multi‑stakeholder environment.

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, Communication, Arts, or related discipline and two years of related experience in financial administration, post-secondary academic program administration and coordination, and event management, or an equivalent combination of education, training and experience.

Strong knowledge of University accounting, purchasing, and research grant management procedures and practices.
Exceptional organizational, problem‑solving, interpersonal, and conflict‑resolution abilities.
Proven ability to exercise sound judgment, initiative, diplomacy, and tact in resolving financial and administrative matters.
Proficiency with student information systems, databases, spreadsheets, and related productivity tools.
