Job Description
PointClickCare wants a Legal Counsel based in the Greater Toronto Area, working hybrid with two office days each week. The lawyer reports to the VP, Contracts and Legal. The post suits a counsel whose commercial and corporate background comes from a respected law practice or an in-house legal team.
The employer is a privately held, founder-led health technology company. Its platform is used by more than 30,000 provider organizations and includes a marketplace of over 400 integrated partners. Forbes has named the employer among its top private cloud companies.
Much of the work involves drafting and negotiating agreements for technology, services and data. Agreement types named include master services, partnership, confidentiality, business associate, SaaS, data protection, software license, subcontractor and supplier contracts, along with related statements of work.
