Employment & Litigation Lawyer

Looking for courtroom experience without billable hour targets?

We're hiring an Employment & Litigation Lawyer to join our in-house legal team.

This is a rare opportunity to build meaningful litigation experience while working directly with business leaders in a large and growing organization. You'll manage files from start to finish, appear before courts and tribunals, participate in negotiations and mediations, and play a key role in resolving employment and litigation matters.

Unlike many in-house roles, this position offers hands-on advocacy work, early responsibility, and the opportunity to take ownership of your files from day one.

What You'll Do

  • Manage employment and litigation files from pleadings through resolution
  • Represent the organization before courts, tribunals, and administrative bodies
  • Draft pleadings, affidavits, briefs, applications, and settlement materials
  • Participate in mediations and other dispute resolution processes
  • Provide practical legal advice to business leaders
  • Support policy development and proactive risk management initiatives
  • Help resolve workplace issues before they escalate into disputes

What You'll Bring

  • Active membership in good standing with the Law Society of British Columbia
  • 1–4 years of litigation experience, employment law experience considered a strong asset
  • Experience appearing before courts, tribunals, or administrative bodies
  • Strong advocacy, negotiation, and legal drafting skills
  • Ability to independently manage files and competing priorities
  • Sound judgment and a practical, business-minded approach to problem solving
  • A desire to take ownership, make decisions, and drive matters to resolution

Why Join Us

  • No billable hour requirements
  • Meaningful litigation experience from day one
  • Early responsibility and direct ownership of files
  • Exposure to senior leadership and business decision-making
  • Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits
  • Coverage of professional dues and continuing legal education
  • Opportunity to grow your career within a large and diverse organization

This role is ideal for a lawyer who enjoys advocacy, wants to continue developing litigation skills, and is looking for a long-term opportunity outside the traditional law firm model.

If you're interested, we'd love to hear from you.
