Coordinator, Resource Management

Who We Are

You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Doane Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ over 3000 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

The Coordinator, Resource Management is a position for someone relatively new to the workforce, who is interested in joining a dynamic fast paced team supporting the Atlantic region. This role on the Business Support Team is focused on resource management and will give the successful candidate a broad perspective of the operations of a professional services firm.
