Job Description

What if you could redefine what’s possible? With us, you can.

You want Purpose. Growth. Opportunity. People who get it.

We are the home of ambitious, passionate, and innovative world shapers.

With an unmatched breadth and depth of engineering, advisory and science-based expertise, our global minds unite to power local solutions. We are pathfinders and impact makers.

We are Visioneers. We are WSP.

The Opportunity

As an Executive Assistant supporting senior finance leaders, you will play a pivotal role in enabling leadership effectiveness, operational excellence, and strategic execution across a dynamic and evolving organization.

More than a traditional administrative role, this position is a trusted business partnership opportunity for someone who thrives on anticipating needs, creating structure in fast-moving environments, and helping executives focus on what matters most. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being one step ahead, anticipates needs before they arise, and takes ownership of creating structure, momentum, and clarity in a fast-moving environment.

You will work closely with executive leaders, stakeholders across Canada and around the world, and a network of partners who are driving transformation, innovation, and growth across the organization.

This role is ideal for a highly organized, proactive, and adaptable professional who combines exceptional judgement, executive presence and collaboration skills.

This position is based in Montréal and requires an on-site presence four days per week.

Where Your Ideas Matter – If you're ready to take your career to the next level, this role offers the chance to work on projects that push boundaries and impact communities worldwide. Be part of a team that values your ideas, expertise, and growth.

Your Impact

Act as a trusted partner to senior finance executives, proactively managing priorities, anticipating challenges, and ensuring leaders remain focused on strategic objectives.
Orchestrate complex calendars, meetings, travel arrangements, and competing priorities across multiple stakeholders, functions, and time zones.
Provide executive-level support in a fast-paced environment where priorities can shift quickly and responsiveness, adaptability, and sound judgement are essential.
Coordinate leadership meetings and other working sessions, ensuring effective preparation, execution, and follow-through on actions and commitments.
Build strong collaborative relationships with leaders, business partners, and administrative colleagues across Canada and globally to facilitate seamless communication and execution.
Identify opportunities to improve processes, simplify administrative workflows, and leverage digital solutions and AI-powered tools to enhance productivity and effectiveness.
Exercise the highest level of discretion, professionalism, and confidentiality when managing sensitive information and executive matters.
Foster a collaborative team environment by sharing knowledge, supporting colleagues, and contributing to a culture of excellence and continuous improvement.

The Skills That Set You Apart

Significant experience supporting senior executives within large, complex, and fast-paced organizations.
Proven ability to anticipate needs, manage ambiguity, and operate with minimal direction while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.
Strong executive presence with the confidence and professionalism to interact effectively with senior leaders, clients, and external stakeholders.
Exceptional organizational, planning, and prioritization skills, with the ability to balance multiple competing demands simultaneously.
Highly collaborative and relationship-oriented, with a demonstrated ability to build credibility and trust across diverse teams and levels of the organization.
Flexible, adaptable, and resilient, with a positive attitude and a willingness to embrace change.
Strong written and verbal communication skills in both English and French.
Advanced proficiency with Microsoft 365, including Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
Curiosity and enthusiasm for technology, including the use of AI-enabled tools to improve productivity, streamline work, and support executive effectiveness.
Absolute commitment to professionalism, confidentiality, integrity, and sound judgement.
Bilingualism (French and English) is required to collaborate effectively with teams, clients, and partners across Canada and internationally.
