WHO WE ARE
For over 20 years, Caravel Law has pioneered a different kind of law firm in Canada.
Our lawyers combine Big Law training with in-house experience, and embed directly with clients to deliver sophisticated, business-minded counsel without the overhead, hierarchy, or billable hours targets of traditional firms.
We work alongside General Counsel, the C-suite, and founders to build scalable legal capacity where and when it is needed. We don’t measure success in hours billed. We measure it in deals closed, risks avoided and businesses built. At Caravel, you can design your work around your life, while laying the foundation for a meaningful, rewarding career.
WHY CARAVEL
Control over your practice. Full-time or reduced schedule, your call. No billable hour targets, no lockstep, no partnership tournament, and compensation that reflects the work you do.
Work at your level. Senior mandates and direct client contact, without the internal machinery that dilutes both.
Focus on the work. Business development, marketing, conflicts, engagement management, and billing are handled. You practise; we run the firm.
A strong community. Work with peers who bring some of the strongest in-house and law firm experience in the country, and a supportive team dedicated to the success, connection, and well-being of every lawyer at the firm.
A firm built to innovate. We offer a dedicated legal innovation function and AI-enabled delivery, because our clients expect us to be ahead of them.
Strong trajectory. Two decades in, Caravel is growing faster than at any point in its history, with a national bench and sophisticated client engagements that keep expanding.
WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TEAM
Experience
A law degree.
Membership in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario, Law Society of British Columbia, and/or Law Society of Alberta.
A minimum of 6 years of practical related in-house and/or private practice experience in Construction.
The ability to give a clear, business-driven answer under time pressure and stand behind it.
Comfort operating with autonomy. Our lawyers are independent by design and run their own mandates.
Specialized Expertise
Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of agreements, including CCDC contracts, EPCMs, engineering services agreements, and other complex construction and development contracts.
Advise on legal risk, project structuring, procurement strategy (including open RFPs), and execution across the full project lifecycle—from pre-development to post-construction.
Advise and negotiate P3/infrastructure agreements, including concession, design-build-finance-maintain, and operations contracts.
Experience advising on and negotiating outsourcing, supply chain, technology supply and licensing agreements, and cloud services agreements would be considered an asset.
Experience supporting supply chain and procurement processes and issues, including RFTs, RFPs, RFIs, RFQs, and any related contract disputes, would also be considered an asset.
Location
Toronto, Ontario. Remote elsewhere in Canada is also acceptable.
If you feel that your background and experience would be a good fit for this role, we would love to hear from you. We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only candidates under consideration will be contacted.
