Address:
100 King Street West

The Legal Analyst, Canadian P&BB, provides legal support to BMO's Canadian Personal & Business Banking (P&BB) businesses across Canada.

The Legal Analyst works in collaboration with the lawyers supporting Canadian P&BB businesses and reports to the Associate General Counsel. This role operates at various levels within a highly regulated and fast paced, deadline-sensitive environment and is responsible for triaging, managing and providing advice on a variety of inquiries and escalations from front line bank employees, including the group that handles customers' inquiries and complaints.

Although the Legal Analyst is generally expected to respond to inquiries independently, they may also engage one of the Canadian P&BB lawyers for support on more complex matters. The Legal Analyst relies on their strong legal knowledge and the bank's policies and procedures in providing responses, and exercises judgment to provide advice directly to business partners or to work in collaboration with Canadian P&BB lawyers.

Responsibilities:
  • Responds to internal/external inquiries and escalations.
  • Gathers relevant facts, documents, policies and procedures.
  • Reviews and analyses the relevant information to provide advice and guidance to business partners.
  • Identifies opportunities and legal, regulatory and reputational risks and engages counsel to support, if needed.
  • Conducts research.
  • Prepares, drafts and revises legal documents and reports.
  • Assists with drafting of policies to ensure compliance with laws.
  • Delivers timely, accurate and efficient service and support.
Qualifications:
  • Paralegal or Law Clerk certification with 8 years or more of experience, or foreign law degree with at least 3-5 years of relevant experience
  • Familiarity with BMO's processes, procedures and support areas would be an asset but is not mandatory for those outside BMO who are considering this position.
  • Expertise in banking and finance law, lending, secured transactions, estates, power of attorney issues and trusts considered an asset.
  • Experience in the financial sector considered an asset.
  • Advanced research, analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Sound judgment and capacity to identify risks.
  • Ability to work independently.
  • Strong collaboration & team skills.
  • Strong verbal & written communication skills.
  • Technical proficiency gained through education and/or experience.
