Here’s how

The Consumer legal team is very collaborative (and friendly!) and we work cross-functionally with other members of the TELUS Legal & Regulatory team and across the organization. We offer opportunities for both formal and informal mentorship and development. 

 

The position can be located in Montréal, Québec City, Rimouski, Toronto or Vancouver, with the ability to work remotely or in the office.
