Description

A respected BC regulatory body is looking for a corporate commercial lawyer to step in as Associate General Counsel for a 12-month contract.

The role:

This is a broad, senior in-house mandate. You will be advising across the full corporate legal function – contracts, procurement, governance, privacy, HR, and board-level strategy. No two weeks look the same and the work carries real complexity and variety.

What you will be working on:

  • Privacy law and FOIPPA compliance
  • Corporate governance and board committee advice
  • MOU negotiations with other regulatory bodies
  • HR matters including employment agreements and sensitive terminations
  • Strategic legal advice to senior leadership

Why this role:

  • Senior mandate with real autonomy from day one
  • Genuine breadth across corporate law, privacy, governance, procurement, and HR
  • Collaborative, humble culture with excellent work-life balance
  • Genuine 9 to 5 – this is not a role where you are expected to be available around the clock
  • Hybrid working arrangement – 5 days in office per 10
  • Strong compensation up to $227k, benchmarked above market

The ideal candidate:

  • Corporate commercial lawyer with a strong foundation in drafting and negotiating contracts
  • Motivated by public interest work
  • Humble, hands-on, and able to hit the ground running
  • Open to candidates at varying levels of experience with strong contract drafting and negotiation fundamentals
