Employment/Litigation Legal Counsel

FedEx Express Canada – Mississauga, Ontario (Hybrid)

If we're going to work together, let us first introduce ourselves – because we are proud of our team at FedEx Express Canada. You know us as a global transportation company – and we've shipped some pretty interesting things over the years, like part of the ship's hull of the Titanic, a windmill, race cars, a helicopter, the shark from Jaws and a lot of panda bears who get their own chartered airplane

So, let's get started telling you why you might be the perfect fit for our team. If you are a positive, high-energy person with experience in Employment Law and Litigation, we have a great job for you

We're looking for an Employment/Litigation Legal Counsel and we promise it's a really fun role You get to:

  • Provide legal counsel and advice to the corporation and its affiliates to ensure adherence to federal, provincial and local employment laws.
  • Advise the corporation on laws affecting the hiring, termination, compensation, benefits and training of company personnel.
  • Review corporate policies and procedures. Advise Human Resources and other stakeholders on the application, meaning, and impact of such policies and procedures.
  • Handle litigation to which the corporation is a party, including monitoring the performance and progress of outside counsel representing the corporation in such litigation.

This job might be for you if you:

  • Thrive in a dynamic environment where you are comfortable working cross functionally by advising key stakeholders on laws and compliance regulations.

And - we'd love if you're really good at the below as well:

  • Review and analyze laws and regulations affecting the company's present and future plans to implement the best business structure for legal compliance.
  • Evaluate legal issues involved in claims by or against the corporation and determine the appropriateness of litigation or settlement.
  • Handle drafting court documents, taking depositions and other discovery, formulating trial strategy and trying cases.

So what do you need to do all of this? How about…

  • Bachelor of Law degree or JD required
  • Member in good standing in the Law Society of Ontario
  • Experience in an employment law or litigation role
  • Robust understanding of Canada Labour Code, Human Rights Act, and other employment legislation
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills
  • Strong research and negotiation skills

Some awesome perks to working at FedEx:

  • A competitive salary and incentives
  • A progressive benefits programs, including health and dental coverage and pension plan
  • A Career Investment Fund with up to $5k a year for programs or tuition reimbursement
  • Strong Community Service programs including diverse volunteer, charity, and fundraising initiatives to give back to both local and global communities
  • Discounted FedEx services, flights, hotels, entertainment and car rentals
  • A fun and diverse team who voted FedEx a best employer and a great place to work (we aren't just saying that - it's actually true)

We don't expect you to deliver any helicopters or pandas – but if you can deliver on this exciting job opportunity, please attach your updated resume when applying. We thank all applicants, and we will contact you directly – by email, not by FedEx – if selected for an interview.
