Our client, a well-regarded boutique law firm based in Vancouver, is seeking an Associate Lawyer with three to seven years of experience to join their team. With a highly focused practice serving local governments and public sector clients, this firm offers a unique opportunity for a mid-level lawyer to deepen their expertise in construction, procurement, and municipal law. The ideal candidate will have experience advising on matters related to public infrastructure projects, contract structuring and negotiation, procurement processes, and regulatory frameworks affecting local government bodies. A background working with or for public institutions—either from private practice or in-house—is strongly valued.

This role is well-suited to a lawyer who thrives on meaningful, community-driven work and who brings strong analytical, drafting, and client management skills to the table. You will work closely with experienced partners and a high-functioning team on complex and varied matters, with the opportunity to play a visible role in client relationships early on. The firm is known for its collegial and collaborative culture, and it fosters an environment where associate development and mentorship are prioritized.

Notably, this opportunity comes with a long-term vision. For the right individual, there is potential for succession planning in due course, making this not just a job, but a career path with leadership opportunity. This is a rare chance to join a firm where you can make a real impact, build a focused and respected practice, and become part of a future-oriented leadership team.
