Edmonton Divorce Careers
 
Fairway Divorce Solutions offers the #1 alternative to the traditional divorce process.   We are changing the way divorce happens for a significant portion of the divorce marketplace.  
 
Our unique company is looking for someone who can be part of our team in Edmonton as a:

Senior Negotiator / Mediator

Why would you want to work with us?

We are changing the way divorce happens: for the better.  At Fairway, we have a process for divorce that makes it easier and is more civilized for all involved.  And we can move the divorce process through to resolution faster.  If you want to work with a company that is challenging the status quo and creating a better way, we are it.  

What else?  We all practice work-life balance here.  And we don’t just say that, we actually do it.  If you would like to work less than full-time hours, that is also possible.  You decide what works the best for you. You decide the hours/days you want to work.    

MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR LIFE AND OTHER PEOPLE’S LIVES.  

Most people want to make a difference.  In this position, you will be making a difference in many people’s lives – including the children.  You will have the responsibility of working with people to help negotiate their divorce issues: money and kids.

WHO YOU ARE:  

You are a person who has a legal background who wants to help families in a more civilized manner. In this position, you will be working with a small number of cases in order to keep the work personal, to keep it moving, and to provide results.  

Maybe you have been through your own divorce – or have had divorce touch your life – and have always thought there must be a better way.  We believe that divorce doesn’t have to be a bad experience for everyone involved.  And we have set out to prove it.  Do you want to be part of the change?  

You are a “take charge” person who likes to make things happen.  You enjoy taking calculated risks and making decisions independently. While the job requires strong initiative and self-direction on your part, results are only achieved with and through people.  You like that.  You also have a very persuasive “selling” type of communication style. You are able to get commitment and buy-in from others and enjoy that challenge.  The environment is fast-paced and requires you to have the ability to deal with conflict situations regularly. You have a self-confident, extroverted style that can move people from their positions to an outcome that can work for everyone.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING:  


•    Describe and sell the Fairway Process to prospective clients
•    Work with both spouses to negotiate and mediate all aspects of their divorce
•    Facilitate initial joint meetings to determine an Interim Plan while they complete the rest of the Fairway process
•    Analyze the client’s financial situation and explain it to both parties
•    Explain and negotiate child support and extraordinary expenses
•    Explain and negotiate spousal support
•    Facilitate joint parenting meetings
•    Write a Resolution Plan that summarizes the couple’s decisions that is then sent to their lawyers so that they may receive independent legal advice

In this position, you will be working with your own clients with very little supervision. You have the opportunity to put your own individual ‘stamp’ on each case.

If you have a strong legal, financial, and / or facilitation/mediation background and want to be responsible for making a difference, please send your resume to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
