Full Job Description

Help us build and support the network that keeps our stores connected.

You’ve seen the headlines. You’ve heard the hype. The Reject Shop is now part of global retail giant Dollarama, and we’re building something big.

2026 is shaping up to be a defining year. Our store network is expanding towards 700 sites, our portfolio is evolving, and we’re transforming how we manage leasing across the country. Behind every new store, renewal, and conversion is a robust and scalable leasing framework — and that’s where you come in.

We’re looking for an experienced Legal Counsel - Property to join our Property team at the Store Support Centre. This role is a fast‑paced, high‑volume position where you’ll take ownership of national lease documentation, drive deal execution, and play a key role in supporting one of Australia’s most active retail growth pipelines.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on complexity, precision, and accountability. If you’re commercially sharp, detail‑driven, and ready to operate at scale, this is your opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

What you’ll be doing

Owning and managing national retail lease precedents, including governance, continuous improvement, and consistency across the portfolio
Reviewing, negotiating, and finalising lease documentation for new stores, renewals, relocations, variations, and conversion projects
Driving leasing transactions through to execution, ensuring accuracy, commercial alignment, and timely delivery
Supporting a high‑volume national growth pipeline alongside a large‑scale store conversion program
Partnering closely with Leasing, Store Development, and Finance to deliver seamless leasing outcomes
Providing commercial oversight on lease terms, balancing risk, governance, and operational practicality
Tracking key lease milestones, proactively identifying risks, bottlenecks, and opportunities to accelerate execution
Ensuring consistency and risk alignment across all documentation to support long‑term portfolio performance
Driving process discipline and efficiency as part of the broader transformation of the Property function
Contributing to the development of scalable systems, frameworks, and documentation to support continued national expansion

What you’ll bring

Proven experience in retail lease administration, property law, or commercial leasing within a national portfolio
Strong capability in reviewing and negotiating lease documentation and managing lease precedents
Commercial acumen with the ability to balance risk, governance, and business outcomes
Confidence operating in a high‑volume, fast‑paced environment
Exceptional attention to detail with strong organisational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities
Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across internal teams and external stakeholders
Experience supporting large‑scale retail portfolios or growth programs is highly regarded

What we can offer you

The opportunity to play a key role in a major national transformation following Dollarama’s acquisition
Direct involvement in modernising and strengthening our national leasing framework
Exposure to one of the most ambitious retail growth and store conversion programs in Australia
A high‑performing Property team operating at scale across a national footprint
Hybrid working model: 3 days in office / 2 days WFH
Competitive salary and benefits package
Paid parental leave for primary and secondary caregivers
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for you and your family
Team Member discount of 15%

This is more than a leasing role. It’s your chance to help shape the property foundations of a growing national retailer.

Ready to be part of the next phase of growth at The Reject Shop? Apply now.
