Au sujet de cet emploi

À titre d'agent ou d'agente de justice, vous offrez une vaste gamme de services de soutien administratif et vous êtes le premier contact pour le public et les clients du système judiciaire.

De plus, vous enregistrez et traitez les documents, vous respectez les politiques et processus et vous maintenez les systèmes de classement tout en travaillant en équipe.

Dans le cadre de vos fonctions, vous pourriez devoir participer au tribunal pour l'appel des causes, l'affirmation ou l'assermentation des témoins, des interprètes et des traducteurs. La personne choisie exécutera également des fonctions quasi judiciaires à titre de juge de paix, en fonction de la loi sur les juges de paix (Justice of the Peace Act).

À votre sujet

Pour occuper ce poste, vous devez posséder quatre années d'expérience connexe. Une combinaison pertinente de formation et d'expérience sera considérée. Une expérience dans un environnement juridique est considérée comme un atout.

Pour occuper ce poste, de l'expérience et des aptitudes dans un environnement automatisé et des compétences en matière de dactylographie, de traitement de texte et de saisie de données sont requises. Vous devez avoir de l'expérience en matière d'adaptation aux technologies et aux procédures qui évoluent rapidement.

Vous possédez d'excellentes compétences en matière de communication et de service à la clientèle et vous avez de l'expérience avec des transactions en argent comptant et par carte de débit ou de crédit.

Votre capacité de traiter efficacement avec le public dans un environnement stressant à multiples facettes, souvent dans des situations de conflit ou délicates, sera importante à votre succès dans ce rôle. Vos compétences en matière d'organisation et de gestion du temps et votre capacité à mener plusieurs tâches de front seront importantes. Le souci du détail, le respect de la confidentialité et la capacité de travailler sous pression et de respecter les échéances font partie de vos compétences clés.

Une bonne connaissance du système judiciaire et des services gouvernementaux pour effectuer les renvois est un atout. Le bilinguisme avec des compétences orales et écrites en anglais et en français est requis.

Nous évaluerons les qualités ci-dessus à l'aide d'un ou de plusieurs des outils suivants : examen écrit, test standardisé, présentation orale, entrevue et vérification des références.

Autres considérations

C'est un poste permanent à temps plein bilingue basé à Dartmouth, en Nouvelle-Écosse.

Vous serez exposé à des problèmes délicats et à forte charge émotive. Le fait de traiter avec des personnes difficiles ou désemparées créera un environnement stressant.

Vous devrez faire preuve d'une grande précision et d'un grand souci du détail tout en travaillant dans un secteur de services complexe et à volume élevé.

Il existe un risque de vol et de violence physique ou verbale de la part d’individus aux prises avec des situations familiales tendues ou des affaires civiles ou criminelles.

Peu importe la situation, vous devrez rester absolument neutre en tout temps.
