About The Role
We are a group of forward-thinking professionals committed to a more personal and passionate way of practicing law. Our high-growth business is recognized for its expertise and for rethinking the delivery of legal services. Life is short, and we spend a lot of time at work, which is why we think it’s important to like where you work and the people you work with. We work hard to achieve the best results for our clients while maintaining our kick-ass culture. We welcome folks who don’t necessarily fit the traditional law firm mold; we believe diverse personalities help create a richer, more experienced, and more exciting workplace.

We call our legal assistants “Practice Managers” to signal the elevated level of ownership they take in supporting the team’s success. Our Practice Managers are deeply integrated into our legal files, helping to coordinate the bigger picture and support client care by participating in client meetings, transaction calls, and logistics planning with internal teams. Our Practice Managers have a full seat at the table, and we wouldn’t have it (or survive) any other way.

This particular role will involve supporting certain lawyers in the Business Law and Transactions Group in our Victoria office. While the firm is generally supportive of hybrid work from home, some in-office needs come up from time to time that will require you to attend the office outside of your hybrid schedule.

About You
At MT+Co., we value folks who are curious, detail-oriented, driven, and supportive. We are interested in your experience as a professional and as a person. Want to learn more about what makes someone MT+Co. material? Find our values on our website.
