* working from home on a part-time of full-time basis is possible
Is it possible to,
• have a great deal of autonomy and be the “go-to person“ for Quebec legal matters, while being part of a bigger team throughout Canada;
• work part or full time from home; and
• be involved on a very wide range of legal issues arising from doing business in the insurance sector, rather than being siloed in a specific area?
Yes, that is possible!
