Senior labour & employment lawyer

Are you a Senior Labour & Employment Lawyer looking for a platform that offers greater flexibility, meaningful succession opportunities, and the ability to build a long-term practice without the constraints often found in larger national firms?

Our client, a well-established and highly respected Vancouver law firm, is seeking a Labour & Employment Partner to join its growing team. This opportunity has emerged as part of the firm’s long-term succession planning strategy and presents a unique opportunity for a lawyer looking to establish themselves as a key leader within a thriving practice.

Compensation & Benefits

• $250,000+ commensurate with experience
• Comprehensive benefits package
• 4+ weeks vacation

Responsibilities
The incoming lawyer will work closely with an established senior partner whose practice spans a broad range of labour and employment matters. Over time, this lawyer will have the opportunity to build alongside an existing client base while positioning themselves for a significant long-term growth opportunity within the firm.

Working primarily with employers, the practice includes a diverse mix of employment agreements and work place policies, human rights and work place investigations, immigration related matters, liability matters, and labour matters. There would be exposure to both solicitor and litigation work, making this position particularly fitting for someone who enjoys a varied practice.

A portable book of business would be considered a strong asset, as is experience and willingness to continue driving business development and client relationships forward.

Qualifications

• Be called to the BC Bar and be in good standing
• 10 years of post call experience with a strong focus on labour & employment law
