Job description

WHY CONSIDER THIS FIRM?
Alongside the quality of the work, the firm offers a strong combination of career development, flexibility and tangible benefits.

Lawyers have access to twice-yearly promotion cycles, transparent career pathways including progression to Partner, structured career planning and progressive learning programs. The firm's low solicitor-to-partner ratio also provides strong access to senior practitioners.

Benefits include:

  • Structured performance bonus scheme
  • An additional week of leave for lawyers
  • Ability to purchase up to two additional weeks of leave
  • 26 weeks' paid parental leave, with superannuation on paid and unpaid parental leave for up to 12 months, subject to eligibility
  • Flexible working options
  • KPI relief during your first three months with the firm and based on leave
  • Client secondment opportunities
  • Established Pro Bono Program with budget relief for Pro Bono work
  • Additional recognition for strong performance through discretionary bonus and paid leave initiatives

THE OPPORTUNITY
Law Staff is partnering with a leading national firm to appoint an Associate-level lawyer to its established Taxation practice.

The practice has a strong pipeline of front-end advisory, structuring and transactional matters, offering the opportunity to develop specialist tax expertise while remaining connected to broader corporate and commercial work.

You’ll have direct client exposure and the opportunity to take ownership of matters as your experience develops.

Your work will include:

  • Strategic advice across income tax, GST, payroll tax, land tax and stamp duty
  • Tax advisory and structuring for businesses, private clients and sophisticated commercial structures
  • Advising on and drafting complex trust structures and trust deeds
  • Tax aspects of corporate, commercial, property and M&A transactions
  • Private client and estate-related taxation matters
  • Managing matters and developing direct client relationships
  • Supporting and mentoring junior lawyers

The breadth of the practice makes this particularly attractive for someone who enjoys the technical side of tax but also wants to develop as a commercial adviser.

ABOUT YOU
You will ideally have 4+ years’ PAE in taxation or a related corporate/commercial practice.

You may already specialise in tax, or have developed relevant exposure through corporate, commercial, property, private client or transactional work and be interested in moving further into taxation.

You will ideally bring:

  • Experience across income tax and/or state taxes
  • Strong analytical and commercial judgement
  • A genuine interest in tax advisory and structuring
  • The confidence to work directly with clients
  • Broader exposure to M&A, property, commercial transactions or tax disputes would be advantageous

NEXT STEPS
If this sounds like the right next move, we would be happy to provide further information about the practice, team and opportunity in a confidential discussion.

Interviews are offered with complete flexibility, choose from in-person meetings or virtual formats. After meeting with us, you will receive a detailed profile of the role and firm, allowing you to consider the opportunity at your own pace.
