SCHEDULING CO-ORDINATOR – LAW FIRM

(Remote/Hybrid — $50,000 – $70,000 + Performance Bonuses)

Auger Hollingsworth is an award-winning accident and injury law firm with offices in Ottawa and Toronto. We are determined to become Ontario’s preeminent personal injury law firm. We believe in “Delegating to Elevate”—removing administrative weight from our legal team so they can focus on winning cases. We are seeking a persistent, detail-obsessed and proactive Scheduling Coordinator to take full ownership of scheduling key litigation events.

The Role

The Scheduling Coordinator is the firm’s “Calendar Architect.” Your mission is to eliminate the back-and-forth “email tag” and delays between our firm and defense counsel. You are responsible for coordinating dates for Examinations for Discovery, Mediations, Pre-Trials, and Assessments.

This isn’t just about sending an invite; it’s about relentless follow-up. You are the person who picks up the phone when an email goes unanswered. You ensure that our litigation “pods” have a full, organized, and conflict-free calendar that keeps files moving swiftly toward resolution.

Your Support System

You report to the Head of Operations and serve as a “Shared Service” for all Litigation Pods. You are supported by our collaborative framework, meaning you have clear weekly and quarterly goals and a weekly huddle meeting to solve scheduling bottlenecks (e.g., “Defense Firm X never responds to discovery requests”).

What You’ll Do

First Month

• System Audit: Learn the firm’s Case Management System (CMS) and current scheduling “Bring Forward” (BF) protocols.
• Defense Directory: Build a master contact list of “Assistant-to-Assistant” contacts at major insurance defense firms to bypass busy lawyers.

First 6–12 Months

• Standardization: Create the firm’s “Master Scheduling SOP” to ensure every litigation pod follows the same high-speed process.
• Reporting: Track and report on “Days from Pleadings to Discovery” as a key firm-wide growth metric. We are reducing time of desk as a KPI.
• Scalability: Train new administrative assistants as the department grows into a full “Litigation Support Center.”

What Will Set You Up for Success (S.E.T.)

Skills

• Relentless Persistence: You don’t “wait” for a reply. If a defense clerk hasn’t responded in 48 hours, you are on the phone and if that fails writing letters to form part of a record for the lawyer to bring a court application.
• Logistical Prowess: You can manage complex, multi-party calendars (Lawyers, Clients, Adjusters, Court Reporters, Mediators) without errors.
• Tech Savvy: Mastery of Outlook/Google Calendar, Case Management Software and AI tools for law firms.
• Diplomatic Pressure: Ability to be professionally firm with defense firms to “get the dates booked” without burning bridges.

Experiences

• 3+ years minimum in a high-volume scheduling or administrative role (legal, medical, or logistics).
• Experience in Ontario Personal Injury (Plaintiff or Defense) is a significant asset.
• Proven ability to manage high-stress situations with a “calm, structured” approach.

Traits

• The “Finisher”: You hate open loops. You don’t stop until the calendar invite is sent and accepted and the dates are booked.
• High Accountability: You “Own It”—if a discovery is adjourned because of a scheduling oversight, you lead the solution.
• Integrity & Excellence: You represent the firm with total professionalism in every interaction.

Why This Role Matters

By removing the “scheduling grind” from Paralegals, you increase their capacity by 20–30%. This allows them to focus on high-level drafting and client care, which directly increases the firm’s File Velocity, client results and satisfaction and overall profitability.

Compensation & Perks

• Salary: $55,000 – $70,000 + “Velocity Bonuses” for hitting monthly scheduling targets and KPIs.
• Work Flexibility: Hybrid or Remote options across Ontario.
• Full Benefits: Health, dental, vision, pension matching, and unlimited vacation.

(Remote/Hybrid with potential to earn $120,000 – $170,000+)

Auger Hollingsworth is an award-winning accident and injury law firm with offices in Ottawa and Toronto. We are determined to become Ontario’s preeminent personal injury law firm. To reach that goal, we are separating our “Sales” from our “Legal Production.” We are seeking a high-empathy, high-conviction legal professional to own the first and most important step in the client journey: The Initial Retainer.

This full-time role is a blend of remote work with travel to our Toronto and Ottawa offices for in-person signings when required. You will thrive in this role if you love the “first meeting” and have the “closer” mindset required to ensure no wanted new client lead leaves without signing a retainer.

The Role

The Intake & Onboarding Specialist is the firm’s “Chief Closer.” This is the person who ensures that when an injured new client calls our firm, they feel heard, protected, and confident in signing with us immediately. You are the “Face of the Firm” for the initial days of the file.

This is a role for a legal professional who excels at Sales Psychology. You aren’t just giving legal advice; you are overcoming objections, explaining and demonstrating our “Value Proposition,” and ensuring 100% of wanted leads are converted into active clients. You bring order to the chaos of new inquiries and ensure our Litigators only receive the best liability and damages cases.

Your Support System

You report directly to the Head of Operations and work in lockstep with the Intake call taking team who handle the initial screening and conflict checks, allowing you to focus purely on the high-value consultation and getting the retainer signed.

You will own the “Conversion Rate” metric on the firm’s weekly scorecard. You will have a weekly meeting to identify why leads aren’t signing and solve those friction points immediately.

What You’ll Do

First Month

• Shadowing & Swiping: Observe current intake meetings and use the best scripts and talk tracks from the top PI firms in North America.
• The “Script” Audit: Review and refine the firm’s initial consultation script to focus on “The Close” and client empathy.
• System Integration: Master the CRM (Case Management System) and Intake software to ensure 0% lead leakage.

First 90 Days

• Conversion Ownership: Achieve a >85% conversion rate on all qualified leads presented to you.
• Speed to Lead: Ensure 100% of “Hot Leads” are met with (virtually or in-person) live and immediate and within no more than 4 hours of qualification.
• The “Welcome” Experience: Contribute to a “New Client Welcome Kit” that reduces buyer’s remorse and increases early-stage referrals.
• You will be able to give feedback to the marketing department to ensure the firm is only investing in obtaining the correct, high-quality leads.

First 6–12 Months

• Portfolio Quality Control: Ensure 100% of signed files meet the firm’s “Criteria for Success” before they are transferred to the Litigation Pods.
• Feedback Loop: Work with Marketing and intake call takers to identify which lead sources provide the highest “Sign-to-Lead” ratio.
• Revenue Impact: Directly impact the firm’s 1-year growth target by increasing the monthly “New Retainer” volume by 50%.

What Will Set You Up for Success (S.E.T.)

Skills

• Sales & Persuasion: You understand the “Psychology of the Close.” You know how to ask for the signature with confidence, without delay.
• Legal Triage: Ability to quickly assess liability, damages, and “coverage” in Ontario personal injury matters.
• High Empathy: You can connect with someone on the worst day of their life and make them feel safe and that they called the right law firm.

Experiences

• 5+ years in Personal Injury (Lawyer or Paralegal) with a heavy focus on intake or client management. Ideal for senior legal professional who wants a change of pace from legal practice.
• Proven track record in a “Sales-Heavy” legal environment.
• You love being measured by your numbers.

Traits

• The “Closer” DNA: You are competitive and hate losing a good file to a competitor.
• High Energy: You bring the same passion to the 10th meeting of the day as you did to the first.
• Owner Mindset: You treat every lead as if it were your own business’s capital.

What Won’t Set You Up for Success

• Viewing Intake as an “administrative burden” rather than a “growth engine.”
• Being uncomfortable talking about money, fees, or the “contingency” model.
• Waiting for the lawyer to tell you if a file is “good enough” to sign.
• A “wait and see” attitude—in PI, if you don’t sign them now, they’ll sign with our 6 other competitors down the street.

Why This Role Matters

By owning the Intake process, you unlock the firm’s growth. You free up our Litigators to settle files, and you ensure that every dollar we spend on marketing results in a signed retainer. You are the gateway to the firm’s success.

Compensation, Perks & Benefits

• Competitive Base Salary: $100k – $130k (depending on Year of Call and experience).
• The “Closer” Bonus: Significant incentive bonuses for every “Qualified Wanted Sign” and hitting monthly conversion targets.
• Full Benefits: Health, dental, vision, firm-matching pension plan, unlimited vacation!
• Culture: A professional, high-growth environment where “We Drive To Win!”
