Office manager Jobs in Mississauga, ON

Job Description

EBC is a leading Canadian construction company that thinks outside the box and brings its expertise, creativity, and collaborative approach to some of the country’s most complex and significant projects.

Our business is built around several major sectors, including Buildings, Civil Infrastructure, Industrial, and Major Projects. Our fast-growing Toronto office represent a significant portion of EBC’s operations and EBC, as one of Canada’s leading firms has extensive expertise in civil infrastructure, complex buildings, industrial projects, bridges, roads, highways, tunnels, marine works, hydroelectric facilities, amongst other sectors.

Our ability to deliver complex projects safely, efficiently, and successfully—while meeting demanding schedules and budgets—has allowed EBC to participate in landmark Canadian projects.

But EBC is about more than the projects we build. Our people and our culture are at the heart of our success. We believe that creating a welcoming, collaborative, respectful, and high-performing workplace is essential to attracting and retaining great people and enabling them to do their best work.

We are looking for an Office Manager who shares that philosophy and wants to play a central role in creating an exceptional workplace experience for our employees, clients, partners, and visitors.

Position Overview

The Office Manager is much more than the person responsible for the day-to-day operation of the office. This individual will be a key ambassador for EBC and a champion of our workplace culture.

As one of the first people employees, clients, partners, candidates, and visitors interact with when they enter our office, the Office Manager will help set the tone for the EBC experience. We are looking for someone who is naturally welcoming, energetic, professional, organized, and genuinely enjoys bringing people together.

The successful candidate will take ownership of creating an office environment where people feel welcomed, connected, supported, and proud to work.

This means paying attention not only to how the office operates, but also to how it feels. From welcoming a new employee on their first day, to recognizing an important milestone, organizing a team event, ensuring our common spaces are inviting, helping a visitor feel at home, or simply noticing when something could be done better—the Office Manager will have a meaningful influence on the everyday employee experience.

Reporting to the Executive Assistants supporting the Buildings and Civil divisions, the Office Manager will work collaboratively across the organization and will have responsibility for office culture and employee experience, front-of-house hospitality, office operations, facilities, purchasing, events, and administrative and financial support.
