Description

Fasken is a leading international business law and litigation firm. With over 900 lawyers and 1,100+ employees, we have offices in Vancouver, Surrey, Calgary, Tsuut’ina Nations, Toronto, Ottawa, Montréal, Québec City, London, and Johannesburg. We provide strategic and thoughtful advice in virtually all areas of business law to a broad range of clients including close to half of the Fortune 100 companies, corporate clients, government agencies, regulatory authorities, non-profit bodies and individual clients.

We are a high-achieving, professional, entrepreneurial, team-oriented, and friendly place to work. We are committed to diversity and inclusion and offer a welcoming environment for all people. While we are here to service our clients and are a deadline-driven industry, we look to be innovative, and there are opportunities to participate in initiatives which make a difference in our firm and community.

Achieve excellence doing work that’s challenging and rewarding, with people you’ll like working with, in an environment that’s welcoming, supportive, entrepreneurial and innovative, where you’re a valued contributor, not just an employee.

Job Summary

Reporting to the Senior Director, Pursuits and with a dotted line to the Senior Director, Firmwide Marketing Communications, you will lead and execute strategic marketing planning for campaigns and programs to strengthen market presence, brand awareness, enhance reputation, and support business growth. This is a hands-on role, working alongside lawyers and stakeholders to plan, produce and deliver marketing initiatives, including events and in-market activations.

Hybrid remote work arrangements are available with requirements as per business needs for onsite office support. The successful candidate must live in or around Calgary, AB and be able to commute to the office as often as required. While this is a hybrid role, the majority of the work may be onsite in any given week. The primary location of this role is downtown Calgary, with occasional needs to visit our Tsuut’ina office.

Fasken Calgary has a mandatory minimum requirement of three (3) days in office and up to two (2) days remote, work permitting. In-office requirements are subject to change, based on business needs as determined by the Firm’s Management and applicable business group.

Standard core hours of work are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.. This role is not overtime eligible and some flexibility will be required from management within the Firm's core business hours to meet the needs of the department and other region’s time zones.

For Indigenous candidates interested in employment on-reserve, there may be an opportunity at Fasken to do so at our Alberta office situated on Tsuut\'ina Nation , west of Calgary.

To us, success means:

• Having a strong client service approach – you’re ready, willing, and able to put our clients first and exceed their expectations.
• Caring about one another – you possess strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build harmonious working relationships within your immediate team, across other departments in the firm, and the community.
• Working collaboratively – you’re a self starter who values working in a collaborative team based environment.

• Demonstrating strong research, investigative and problem solving skills with the ability to exercise judgement to resolve issues.
• Treating sensitive and confidential matters with discretion and diplomacy at all times.
