ABOUT US
For over 25 years, BUKSA / Conferences + Associations has served associations, universities, governments, regulatory agencies, and corporations delivering best-in-class experiences to our clients and their stakeholders. We have worked in all of Canada’s major centres and loads of small cities and towns, and we are proudly 100% Canadian owned. The BUKSA Association Management team are professionals driven to provide strategy-minded leadership to elevate association administration and better serve members and stakeholders.
ABOUT THE POSITION
The Association Administrative Assistant (AA) reports to the Director of Strategic Initiatives who leads BUKSA’s association portfolio. The mission of the AA is to support our Association Management portfolio by handling the day-to-day affairs of several different not-for-profit associations based in Alberta and across Canada. This is a part-time position with some flexibility around the hours of work.
Association administration, including answering member inquiries, coordinating logistical details and association initiatives such as awards programs, maintaining the association’s membership database, creating meeting/association materials, and providing on-site meeting and board meeting support are key responsibilities of the AA. The AA will also support events and conferences hosted by the Associations we manage, assisting with venue coordination, registration inquiries, virtual platform and venue set-up, speaker support, and on-site technical assistance.
Administrative experience is required, and previous experience with associations, events, and conferences will be a strong asset in this role. The AA enjoys working in teams, has excellent communication skills with a customer service focus, and thrives in a fast‐paced environment where many activities need to be coordinated simultaneously. Location in Edmonton is an asset, but the position is open to remote work from home within Canada.
