Workplace Lawyer

May 19, 2026

Do the work that shapes workplaces

Workplace law sits at the intersection of business, people, and risk. The advice we give affects how organizations operate, how leaders make decisions, and how workplace conflicts are resolved. If you want a practice that is dynamic, strategic, and deeply relevant, this is the role for you.

We are Canada’s only national boutique workplace law firm and our Calgary office is looking for a 3 to 5 year call who wants to continue to build a career in this field. Our practice is growing and we need your help. Our sole focus is workplace law and we have depth of experience across the country that is unmatched. With offices across Canada we deliver strategic advice, practical solutions and immediate crisis management, locally and nationally.

This is not a back-room research role. You will be trusted with running files, working directly with clients, providing strategic advice, appearing before courts and tribunals, and helping employers navigate challenging situations. You will work closely with senior lawyers who are invested in mentorship and in helping associates become lifelong partners with the firm.

We are looking for a lawyer with drive, who is intelligent, practical, and curious about how workplaces actually function. Strong writing and advocacy skills matter. So does judgment. Most importantly, we are looking for someone who wants to build expertise and grow a long-term practice in workplace law.

This role is ideal for a lawyer who wants to take on increasing responsibility and grow their practice within a supportive boutique environment. Our size allows for mentorship, direct client exposure, and the opportunity to have an impact on our clients and our firm culture. This is an exceptional opportunity to join a collegial, diverse and leading group of lawyers in the Calgary market.
