Balanced Perspectives is assisting a wonderful family-run company that is seeking an organized and proactive Office Administrator to join their team. Located on Highway 672 just outside Sexsmith, this construction industry company must fill a vacant spot.

While the official title is Office Administrator, they will call you by your first name and will be happy to see your smiling face every morning or hear the laughter in your voice when you pick up the phone. They need someone who can run things when the Owners are out of the office at work sites or in client meetings but not overstep. You will oversee daily office operations, manage administrative tasks, ensure the office runs smoothly and politely tell them what to do and when. And if polite doesn't work, use a bit more tough love. This team is used to having a strong person in this role who is able and willing to take on extra tasks when necessary to help and has enough common sense to know when to create a make-work project for yourself when it’s a quiet day.
