OPPORTUNITY:

HEABC has an opportunity for a lawyer of approximately seven to ten years call to work within the Medical Staff Services portfolio. Working within a collegial and service-oriented environment, you will work with a team of lawyers and other professional staff to support and/or conduct negotiations for physician and medical staff contracts, provide advice and analysis on a range of legal, policy and human resources issues, and advise or represent the government or BC's Health Authorities on disputes arising under the Physician Master Agreement, physician and medical staff contracts or related legislation.
