Yvenson Francois

Analyst, Technology Support

“This was my first job after finishing school, and I have grown at BLG. I consider everyone here my second family. I love the customer service aspect of my position, finding short-term solutions for users that are very busy and in demand on a daily basis. The firm is committed to its employees. I’m proud to be part of this elite team!”

Jacquelyn DeGreeve

National Director, Knowledge Management and Information Services

“I do not have a legal background, which many people think is a requirement to work in a law firm. If you are ambitious and willing to learn, there is so much opportunity for you at BLG. I was in a manager role for only three months before I progressed to my current role! One thing that really differentiates BLG from other workplaces is the continuous opportunity to grow and improve.”

Wayne Cross

Director, IT Security and Operations

“In terms of technology, law firms are more agile than most companies. Technology is constantly evolving at BLG; we are at the pinnacle of a lot of the technology that we use in cyber security and infrastructure. That is one reason I’ve been here for 13 years – it keeps me very interested and busy!”

Julie Lévesque

Director, Legal Support Services

“I joined BLG as a practice assistant and was able to quickly progress my career in just five years. The career-advancement support is there; once you voice your interests and goals, everyone is willing to have a conversation with you to help you succeed. My managers and mentors gave me the tools and the confidence to apply myself. I was very lucky that there’s this really great team atmosphere at BLG.”
