Senior Corporate Law Clerk

$130k - $160k per year
Full-time

Hays

Your new company  

You will be joining a highly regarded, sophisticated legal organization supporting a top-tier Private Equity platform. This is a position within a well‑established team, offering the opportunity to step into a high‑performing environment with strong internal infrastructure and global reach.

The team operates on a “work hard, play hard” culture, with a collaborative approach and shared ownership across files. You will be part of a tight‑knit group of eight legal professionals, with support spanning both Toronto and international team members.

This organization is known for its premium work, deal flow, and commitment to operational excellence, making it an ideal environment for an experienced law clerk seeking exposure to complex, high‑value transactions.

Your new role  

As a Senior Corporate Law Clerk, you will be part of a shared service model supporting private equity lawyers across a broad range of corporate and transactional matters.

In this role, you will:

  • Support corporate transactions, including acquisitions, financings, restructurings, and ongoing corporate maintenance
  • Draft and review corporate documents, resolutions, and deal materials
  • Manage minute books and corporate records across multiple entities and jurisdictions
  • Assist with due diligence, closings, and post‑closing matters
  • Collaborate with a centralized legal team, working within a shared workflow model across multiple lawyers and files
  • Liaise with internal stakeholders, external counsel, and cross‑border teams
  • Contribute to process improvement and operational efficiency within a fast‑paced environment

What you'll need to succeed  

  • A minimum of 4 years of strong experience as a corporate law clerk (private equity or transactional exposure strongly preferred)
  • A detail‑oriented, highly organized approach with the ability to manage multiple competing deadlines
  • Experience supporting complex, high‑volume deal environments
  • Confidence working independently while also thriving in a team‑based, shared workload model
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • A proactive, solutions‑oriented mindset with high levels of professionalism and discretion
  • Comfort working in a fast‑paced, high‑expectation environment

What you'll get in return  

  • $130,000–$160,000 base salary, plus bonus potential
  • 3–4 weeks’ vacation (based on experience)
  • RRSP contribution of up to 6% employer match (pro‑rated in year one)
  • Comprehensive benefits through Canada Life, including health, dental, HSA, and fitness reimbursement
  • Hybrid work model (3 days onsite)
  • A collaborative, performance‑driven environment with strong team culture and social engagement
