ABOUT US

At Talbot & Associates (T&A), we're not your typical accounting firm. Founded right here in Manitoba in 1991, we've been making numbers look good - and making clients smile - for over 30 years. Since 2019, we've proudly held our spot on the ?Top 3 Accounting Firms in Winnipeg? list by Three Best Rated. We're a bilingual (French/English) team of 90+ amazing humans who treat each other like family, share knowledge generously, and believe work should be rewarding and enjoyable. We take pride in helping our team members live their dreams, whether that's advancing in their career, developing new skills, or simply enjoying life outside of work.

We're excited to welcome a motivated and experienced Administrative Assistant to our team in a full-time, temporary role from January to mid-May 2026. In this role, you'll be the heartbeat that keeps our operations running smoothly. From managing the little details that keep the office humming, to supporting multiple departments and ensuring our communications land just right, you'll be the go-to for making sure things flow with ease.

We're looking for someone highly organized, adaptable, and able to juggle priorities like a pro. You'll work closely with our leadership team and staff, so strong communication skills, a cheerful attitude, and a love of teamwork are must-haves. When things get especially busy, we work together to keep everything moving. That means we'll need your flexibility during peak seasons, particularly in March and April, when extra hours may be required.

• A real voice where your ideas matter, and your impact will be felt.
