About The Firm:

We are supporting a well-established law firm in their search for a Corporate Commercial Lawyer (Edmonton).

About The Role:

This is an exciting opportunity for a talented corporate commercial with a minimum of 5+ years of experience to step into an established senior-level practice. If you are looking for a career growth and a path towards partnership, I encourage you to apply/reach out for a confidential conversation.

You will have the opportunity to practice in one or more of the following:

  • Corporate/Commercial & Business Law - business sales and acquisitions, shareholder agreements, corporate reorganizations, and commercial contracts.
  • Business Succession Planning - ownership transition, family and management buyouts, reorganizations, and long-term structuring for privately held businesses.
  • Real Estate - ancillary transactions, land development, and commercial leasing.
  • This is a real opportunity for a lawyer to take on an established practice, manage their own client and help shape the future of the firm.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • 6+ years of experience in corporate/commercial, business succession planning or real estate law.
  • Member in good standing with the Law Society of Alberta or equivalent Canadian accreditation.
  • Juris Doctor or LLB degree from an accredited law school.
  • A demonstrated ability to independently manage complex files and client relationships.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • The ability to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines.
  • Strong interpersonal and leadership skills, and a genuine willingness to mentor junior lawyers.

What The Firm Can Offer:

  • Competitive and comprehensive compensation package.
  • Mentorship (both formal and informal) and training programs to support their lawyers.
  • Regular "lunch and learn" meetings where their lawyers share substantive and business-of-law knowledge.
  • Supportive and collegial work environment.
  • A genuine partnership track and career growth for lawyers.

Next Steps:

If you have the required corporate commercial experience and are looking for a confidential conversation about this opportunity we encourage you to apply.

Even if you do not feel you meet every single requirement we still want to hear from you. We may have other opportunities that might be a great fit for your skills.
