What- the Role:
On behalf of our client, SWIM is looking for a new Administrator.

Qualified candidates will have at least 3 years of progressive administrative experience within a corporate environment.

We are seeking an Administrator who is adaptable and friendly. Strong computer skills (particularly using MS Office Suite) are required. Over the long term, the person in this role can develop into more and more senior capacities in the compliance and administration field and can also take on responsibilities spanning other areas of the business, not just the mortgage investment side.Why:  This is a diverse administrative and compliance role that will enable you to work for an interesting, stable, and reputable organization. Great opportunity to really feel part of a tight-knit and friendly team.  Opportunity for long-term growth and to take on more and more complex responsibilities with time. SWIM has placed many happy people at this company over they years.

Where: 
Located in the heart of Downtown Vancouver, BC in a beautiful corporate office. Extremely transit-accessible. A BIG perk is that the company buys lunch for all employees every day- yum yum!

How Much:
Base salary is commensurate with experience, likely in the range of $58,000 to $78,000, perhaps with some wiggle room beyond if someone has very relevant work experience and skills.  Plus health benefits, paid vacation, relevant professional development support, and the aforementioned daily lunch program. Please discuss your total compensation expectations with SWIM.
