Description
Crawford Munroe Thomson LLP is one of Canada’s leading labour and employment boutiques, providing trusted advice to many well-known local, national and international employers. The firm’s lawyers are acknowledged by Lexpert, Chambers Canada, Benchmark, Who’s Who and Best Lawyers as leaders in employment, labour, human rights and workers compensation.
The firm has a vibrant practice across the entire labour and employment spectrum in dozens of industries, with particularly deep expertise in construction labour relations, the defense of wrongful dismissal and human rights claims, restrictive covenant and trade secret cases, workplace investigations and in advising a broad array of public sector employers.
At 12 lawyers, we have the experience and depth necessary to serve the most sophisticated needs of our clients, while maintaining a true boutique culture where meaningful working relationships can be developed with all members of the team. Our associates work directly with the partners, which we find is best for professional development. We strive to provide excellent, practical and responsive advice to our clients. We are committed to developing the skills and talent of our associates through regular in-house training seminars.
Due to continuing client growth and demand, we seek to add a mid-to-senior level associate, based in either our Vancouver or Victoria offices. We have successfully and fully integrated an associate working remotely and are open to remote working arrangements for the right candidate living outside of the Lower Mainland or Greater Victoria.
You are an associate with three to six years’ labour and/or employment experience. Alternatively, you have significant litigation and/or administrative law experience and are interested in changing practice areas. Strong analytical and writing skills are imperative, as is a desire to undertake hearing work both in the courts and before tribunals.
We also welcome applications from exceptional candidates who have less experience.
At CMT, you will:
- Work directly with the firm’s partners in challenging and interesting files across the whole employment and labour law spectrum
- Participate in in-house professional development seminars
- Be mentored by partners of the firm to ensure your ongoing professional development
Compensation for full-time positions will range from an annual salary of $145,000 to 175,000, depending on experience, with a bonus compensation program for exceeding targets.
