We are pleased to welcome a pragmatic, business-minded lawyer into a permanent position within the legal team to help our growing business capitalize on an exciting pipeline of opportunities.

- Advising on collaborative agreements including memoranda of understanding, teaming agreements and consortia and joint venture agreements.
- Evaluating disputes and advising on dispute resolution strategy and managing the resolution of claims with the businesses, litigation team and external insurers.
- Advising on the protection of intellectual property and intellectual property licensing matters.
- Attending commercial meetings, gated risk reviews (bid go/no go) and other business reviews.
- Assisting in the maintenance, development and drafting standard terms and conditions and policies, procedures and guidance notes.
- Liaising with other corporate functions (Tax, Treasury, Insurance, Company Secretary, Integrity) to ensure compliance with corporate governance requirements.
- Training colleagues within the business on legal/commercial matters and recent developments.

**Why choose** **AtkinsRéalis as an employer?**

- The opportunity to work on various major projects for internal and external clients.
- An exciting environment where work-life balance is important.
- A wide array of learning and development opportunities.
- Competitive pay, flexible benefits, an employee share plan, and a defined contribution pension plan.
- A work environment focused on health and safety.
- You must be licensed to practice law in a Canadian jurisdiction.
- 2 - 5 years post qualification experience gained at a leading private practice law firm or in-house practice in any of the following areas: construction/engineering, energy, projects or intellectual property.
