Executive Assistant – Latrus Family Office
This rewarding and demanding role operates within a high net worth (HNW) family office based in Toronto. The role is required to meet the needs of a highly successful and active entrepreneur who leads a global enterprise as chairman, is the head of a prominent Canadian family, and – together with his family – has a demanding domestic and overseas travel schedule.
This critical role reports to the CEO of the family office and ensures that the chairman’s administrative needs – business and personal – have been attended to in full, with exacting attention to detail, forethought and pre-emption. The incumbent will form part of a team of two Assistants with the other being based in the UK. Given that the primary work commitment is in the UK, the UK-based EA will be the primary noting that there is a requirement to share workload, insights and learnings as required. The Toronto-based team member will also support the CEO of the Family Office, and other ad hoc projects bringing an additional degree of variety and challenge to this unique position.
As is to be expected with such a high-profile and demanding role, there is a requirement for ad-hoc out of hours and weekend working, for example when the family are travelling. Accordingly, the role is suited only to those able and prepared to work flexibly to suit the chairman, business and family as well as accommodate time differences between various locations. This is an office-based role.
