Work environment

Do you like working in a fast-paced, results-oriented environment that values service excellence? Are you looking for the chance to make your mark in a small organization that plays a big role in providing justice to Canadians?

The Administrative Tribunals Support Service of Canada (ATSSC) is a group of committed public servants providing support services to 12 administrative tribunals.

We are the lawyers, mediators, registry officers and other specialized and technical staff that support the effective operations of the tribunals, which are important components of Canada’s justice system.

Why choose the ATSSC?

• Work in a great location in downtown Ottawa, close to parking and public transit. However, due to COVID 19, we are currently working in the comfort of our homes.
• Experience the benefits of working in a small federal organization:

o Broaden your experience by working on a variety of files
o Quick team integration
o Direct access to responsive, on-site internal services (e.g., compensation advisors, IT troubleshooting)
o Connect daily with different teams and levels of management

• Benefit from a flatter organizational structure - you will have more time with senior management providing you with a greater opportunity to understand our business as a whole and to see your contributions in action.

• Grow in an organization that is strongly committed to providing a supportive work environment and healthy life-work balance!
