Executive & Office Assistant

The St. Laurent Group is hiring an Executive & Office Assistant to run the front of our Vancouver office and support our executive team. This is an entry-level position built for a sharp, recent college graduate who wants real exposure to how a family-owned investment firm actually operates. You will answer the phones, help keep the office inbox moving, support the executive team with scheduling, and keep the office running day to day. You will also help facilitate our daily team lunch, where the whole team sits down to work through what is happening across our businesses: commercial real estate, banking, public and private equities, alternative assets, ranching, and wine production. You will hear all of it, and over time you will be asked to contribute to it. We are a small team, and ownership works directly with this role. We invest in training, and we would rather hire for intellect, judgment, and work ethic than for a long resume. Schedule: Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM, including the daily team lunch. Responsibilities Front office and communications Answer and route incoming calls; greet tenants, vendors, partners, and guests. Help monitor the main office inbox and route messages to the right person. Handle incoming and outgoing mail, deliveries, and document routing. Executive support Support the executive team with scheduling: set up meetings and appointments as requested and keep calendars current. Coordinate travel, appointments, and site visits for the executive team. Prepare meeting materials, take notes, and track follow-ups so decisions turn into action. Draft correspondence and handle personal-assistant tasks for ownership as needed. Daily team lunch Facilitate our daily team lunch, which functions as a roundtable across all of our businesses: coordinate food and setup, keep a running agenda of open items, capture decisions and action items, and follow up with the responsible team member. Office management Keep the office stocked, organized, and presentable; manage vendors and service providers. Maintain digital and physical filing systems and basic records. Track office expenses and submit them to the accounting team. Projects Take on research, data-gathering, and special projects across the businesses as your capacity and skills grow. Who We're Looking For Qualifications Bachelor's degree strongly preferred (any major). Recent graduates are encouraged to apply. 0–3 years of professional experience. Internships, campus leadership, and part-time work all count. Strong writer and clear communicator, in person, on the phone, and in email. Organized and detail-oriented; comfortable managing multiple calendars and competing priorities for several people at once. Intellectually curious. You ask good questions, learn quickly, and want to understand the business behind the task. Discreet and professional. You will handle confidential information about our businesses and our people. Proficient in Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and comfortable picking up new software. Requirements Able to work on-site in Vancouver, WA, Monday through Friday. Valid driver's license and a reliable personal vehicle for local errands (vehicle allowance provided). Must pass a background check prior to employment. Compensation, Benefits & Growth $40,000 – $44,000 annual salary, depending on experience. Vacation / Paid Time Off and paid major U.S. holidays. $200/month vehicle allowance for use of your personal vehicle on lunch, mail, and errand duties; phone allowance. Daily team lunch provided. Direct mentorship from ownership and the executive team. We plan for this role to grow: strong performers move into operational, project, or asset-management responsibilities across the group.
