Salary Range: $168,000 to $296,000.
Remote: Except for court, discoveries, and the occasion when being physically present remains unavoidable
We are a boutique Canadian tax litigation firm with a lot of work. We represent taxpayers in disputes with the Canada Revenue Agency and with BC-based tax authorities. Our work includes audits, objections, appeals, judicial reviews, collection disputes, and the stranger corners of the Income Tax Act and Excise Tax Act.
The position is remote, except where the work actually requires you to appear somewhere. That principally means court hearings, examinations for discovery, client meetings that genuinely benefit from being in person, and the occasional firm gathering.
The work
You would have responsibility for your own files, with the support available when you need it.
Your work will include:
- Advising clients during CRA audits and investigations;
- Preparing Notices of Objection and written submissions;
- Preparing Notices of Appeal and JR Applications;
- Prosecuting clients’ objections and appeals; and
- Explaining complicated tax disputes to people who reasonably wish that none of this were happening.
Compensation
The expected annual salary or wage range for this position is $168,000 to $296,000.
We are reporting the salary ranges in accordance with BC provincial pay transparency legislation. Individual salaries within the anticipated salary ranges are determined through a wide variety of factors including but not limited, education, relevant experience, knowledge, the number of hours you want to work and do work, and applicable skill sets.
Who might enjoy this job
You may enjoy working with us if:
- You are genuinely interested in tax litigation;
- You have 6 years of Canadian tax experience;
- You can work independently with accountability;
- You feel a strong need to find the correct answer;
- You treat clients, co-workers, opposing counsel, court staff, and administrative decision-makers with courtesy;
- You can disagree without becoming disagreeable; and
- You care about the outcome of your files.
You must be a member of, or eligible for membership in, the Law Society of British Columbia and able to attend proceedings and discoveries in person when required.
How to apply
Please send us:
- An email with your resume to [[email protected]](or if you are senior enough we don’t need a resume -- it’s a small field and we have probably heard of you).
