Legal Counsel, North America

$175k per year

The Mirillion Group

My client is a global financial services organization. They are looking to add a Legal Counsel to its Toronto office, reporting to the organization’s Senior Legal Leadership Team.

This role would be the organization's first dedicated North American-based lawyer, working closely with Canadian leadership and the Global Legal Team to support new and existing financial product development and market expansion, with a focus on Canada and potential expansion into the United States.

In this role, the ideal candidate would serve as the primary legal contact for Canadian and U.S. operations, providing practical advice to business leaders and collaborating with international legal and operations colleagues.

The role combines commercial contract negotiation, corporate matters and practical advice on business initiatives. You’ll work with local and global colleagues across several functions, helping them navigate legal issues and move projects forward, with support from experienced legal professionals and external advisers.

We’re interested in Canadian-qualified lawyers with corporate/commercial and/or financial services transactional-focused or regulatory & compliance experience gained in private practice, in-house or both, ideally with 5-6 years of post-call experience.

Strong judgment, a practical approach and an interest in understanding the business will be important. Experience with US Law is ideal as well.

Base salary is up to $175,000, plus a percentage-based discretionary bonus, five weeks of vacation and benefits. This role is a hybrid role, with a mix of in-office and work-from-home time.
