Executive Assistant to CEO

This is a remote position.

About Our Client

This confidential search is being managed by The HR Pro on behalf of one of Canada’s fastest-growing mortgage brokerages.

Our client operates as a modern, cloud-based brokerage with a fully remote team across Canada, supporting a high-performance and entrepreneurial culture built around innovation, collaboration, and growth.

They are currently seeking a highly organized, proactive, and tech-savvy Executive Assistant to support the CEO, while also providing administrative coordination support to the VP of Operations.

This is not a traditional “task-based” assistant role. The ideal candidate is someone who takes ownership, anticipates needs, thrives in a fast-paced virtual environment, and enjoys helping senior leaders stay organized, efficient, and ahead of schedule.

The Opportunity

This is a fully remote position offering the opportunity to work closely with executive leadership in a growing national organization.

While the role is fully remote and open to candidates across Canada, the CEO is based in British Columbia and frequently travels across the country. As a result, the successful candidate should be comfortable working with some flexibility in scheduling and availability to support a fast-moving executive environment across multiple time zones.

The role will involve a combination of executive support, calendar and inbox management, meeting coordination, operational follow-up, and day-to-day administrative oversight. The successful candidate will be comfortable managing competing priorities, handling confidential information professionally, and working independently with minimal supervision.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys bringing structure to fast-moving environments and takes pride in being the person who “keeps everything running.”
