The Role

Are you a lawyer who thrives on strategic thinking and meaningful people work, and is looking for a fresh way to use your skills beyond the traditional practice of law?

Our seasoned executive search team at Amrop Rosin Calgary (formerly Pekarsky & Co.) is seeking a Legal and Executive Search Consultant to join our growing Calgary office. This role is ideal for a practicing lawyer who is ready to pivot into a more people-focused, strategic executive advisory role, or a former lawyer already working in talent, professional development or client service who is seeking deeper engagement in legal and executive search.

You will be joining a close-knit team that values collaboration, authenticity, and good judgment. From day one, you'll be entrusted with meaningful work: helping shape legal teams and advising organizations through leadership transitions that impact their business for years to come. Whether you're mapping the legal talent market, drafting a compelling candidate summary, or coaching a partner from a national law firm through a move, you'll be at the centre of people decisions that matter. Our award-winning firm has successfully completed nearly 250 legal searches for 22 of Canada's 30 largest law firms, as ranked by Lexpert, along with approximately 200 in-house counsel searches-including many of the most high-profile General Counsel mandates in Western Canada.

This is also a rare opportunity to learn the business of executive search from some of the most respected practitioners in the field, in a firm that genuinely invests in its people. You'll have access to mentorship, training, and hands-on guidance across all stages of the search process.

About Amrop Rosin Calgary

Amrop Rosin is a global leader in executive and legal search and leadership advisory, combining strategic insight, industry expertise, and international reach. With offices in Calgary and Toronto-and access to 70 offices across 57 countries-we bring a global perspective grounded in a deep understanding of local markets.

In Calgary, that local understanding runs deep. Formerly known as Pekarsky & Co., our team has been a mainstay in Alberta's legal and executive search community for over 15 years. Founded by Adam Pekarsky, a "recovering lawyer" with an eye for talent, the Calgary office has long been recognized for its integrity, authenticity, and particular strength in legal search in addition to broad executive search.

Why Join Us?

• Learn the craft of executive search from seasoned professionals and have a front-row seat to some of the most important hiring and leadership conversations happening in the market
• Stay immersed in the legal profession, without the hours or pressures that can accompany it
• Do people-focused work that feels meaningful, alongside people who genuinely enjoy working together
• Work alongside a team that likes to have fun, known to knock off early on a sunny summer day, partake in firm ski trips and summer barbecues, or even head to sunnier climes like Las Vegas when circumstances warrant
• Be part of a team with deep roots in the local legal and business community, but also collaborate with colleagues across Canada and around the world within the Amrop partnership
