    Citizenship Practice Lead

    Toronto, Ontario ImmigrationFull time CA$150,000 to CA$175,000 base salary

    Bring people leadership into a citizenship practice where better systems can improve both client service and legal quality.

    The role

    Lead and develop a team handling citizenship and proof of citizenship applications. You will work alongside another lawyer on legal standards, coach case managers and take responsibility for service quality and client outcomes. The role also includes recruitment, training and using operational data and technology to improve how the team handles a growing caseload.

    What you will need

Strong leadership matters more than an existing citizenship specialism, and lawyers from other practice areas are welcome. You should be comfortable learning quickly, using AI tools and taking ownership of team performance. Relevant legal experience and a practical, collaborative approach are important.
