Accounting and Admin Assistant - Summer Student

As a leading healthcare consultancy, Throughline Strategy’s sole mission is to help healthcare organizations improve experiences and outcomes for people living with illness and those who care for them. Our global clients come to us for our strategic counsel, powerful insights, and design solutions — and because we have a ‘roll-up-the-sleeves’ determination to deliver great work that matters.

At Throughline, we firmly believe that culture is as important as the work we do. We hire for values alignment first and foremost. Our values are centred around what it takes to be a great partner:

Move It Forward - Even when faced with ambiguous, never-seen-before challenges, our people “make %$ happen” in order to make meaningful change.

Know Yourself - Our team is skilled at assessing what we do well (individually, and as a group; in both technical and ‘human’ skills). This increases vulnerability and removes uncertainty in how we operate, creating a more dynamic and sustainable culture of trust, innovation, and teamwork.

Kindness and Candor - We share the truth with one another in a way that leaves everyone whole and allows people to quickly act on feedback in delivering their personal best work.

If these values sound like they were written for you, read on!  We are seeking a motivated, results-oriented individual to join our team on a part-time, temporary contract as an Accounting and Admin Assistant.
