Background

About David Gray

With over 17 years of experience in advertising, marketing, and office management, I’ve built a strong foundation in strategic planning, project management, workflow optimization, and problem-solving. I’ve worked on national and global brands including CIBC, Ford, Intuit, and Chevrolet. With strong communication skills, I lead cross-functional teams and collaborate with internal and external partners on high-pressure projects with tight timelines. I navigate limited budgets with the same strategic focus I applied to million-dollar campaigns, consistently ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and high-impact results. Through my training in Primary Care Paramedicine, I developed the ability to respond with empathy, clarity, and composure under pressure. These qualities consistently enhance my performance and are present in every role I take on. Currently, I manage operations for a dynamic co-working space, handling everything from scheduling and finances to maintenance, virtual mail, social media, and client relations. I also serve as property manager for four on-site tenants, overseeing day-to-day operations and acting as a liaison between the building owner and tenants. I'm passionate about roles that combine operational excellence with meaningful, people-focused impact, particularly in settings where clarity, structure, and support can make a real difference. I'm proficient with a wide range of tools that support smooth operations and collaboration, including: • Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook) • Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets) • Adobe Creative Cloud • Skedda (office booking system) • QuickBooks • Stripe • Project management tools like Asana, Easy Projects, Basecamp, Confluence, and Jira
