It’s therefore a very specific, and very interesting, field that focuses not only on the comparison of the English and French, but also on the use of language (grammar, linguistics, etc.). More particularly, as an English jurilinguist, you will be responsible for revising the English version of legislative texts and for verifying, with a Francophone colleague, the equivalency of both linguistic versions.Who are jurilinguistsJurilinguists work in Department of Justice Canada’s Legislative Services Branch. They are part of the large team of legislative counsel, legistic revisors, bijural experts and editors who work to produce legislative texts of the highest quality. Legislative texts aren’t mere deeds or contracts applicable to individuals; they are laws and regulations that govern all of Canadian society. These texts are therefore of great importance and must be produced in accordance with established conventions and standards.CoachingGiven the particularities of jurilinguistic revision, some methods and knowledge can only be learned on the job. That is why, as a junior jurilinguist, you will receive coaching and your work will be revised during the first part of your journey and, above all, you’ll have the advantage of working closely with experienced Francophone and Anglophone jurilinguists who will be there to support you throughout your career.So, if you’re looking for a challenging and interesting career, dont wait! Join Justice Canada’s team of jurilinguists without delay.Intent of the processA partially or fully assessed pool may be established to staff similar positions within the Department of Justice with various tenures, various linguistic profiles (bilingual imperative only), various operational requirements and/or various conditions of employment.Positions to be filled: Number to be determinedInformation you must provideYour résumé.In order to be considered, your application must clearly explain how you meet the following (essential qualifications)EDUCATION:Successful completion of two years of a post-secondary program with acceptable specialization in social science, statistics, library/archival work or a law-related field or an acceptable combination of education, training and/or experience.Degree equivalencyEXPERIENCE:Significant experience* in providing linguistic advice in English.Significant experience* in revising the English version of texts from a linguistic perspective, for example, the grammar, syntax and style.Significant experience* in comparing the English and French versions of texts to ensure their equivalence, to identify discrepancies and to suggest appropriate revisions.
