Description
The Advocate is looking for a Business Manager. Our current manager is leaving at the end of May 2026 and we hope to find someone to join our small team by early May to allow time for training.
The job is unique and the duties are varied, suitable for someone willing and able to work independently, take initiative and manage a wide variety of duties and responsibilities. The Business Manager’s contribution to the health, growth and advancement of the Advocate is central to the Advocate team.
In addition to interacting with members of bench and bar as well as other subscribers and advertisers, the position requires that the candidate is not only proficient in business communication and bookkeeping but is also comfortable with basic clerical duties and working within deadlines.
Applicants should be familiar with Quickbooks Online (QBO) and Microsoft Office (WORD, OUTLOOK and EXCEL).
The job is considered part-time, averaging 25 - 30 hours per week, and the salary is commensurate with experience.
All members of the team work remotely as the Advocate does not have a central office. The Business Manager is responsible for arranging their own workspace and can work from home. Travel to the Vancouver Law Courts or to attend meetings may occasionally be helpful, but we welcome resumes from across the province.
Those interested or with questions should contact Ludmila Herbst, K.C., the assistant editor, at Farris LLP. Resumes should be sent to [email protected].
