  • Provide legal support on commercial and retail leasing matters, including drafting and reviewing lease agreements.
  • Handle property transactions, including contract reviews and advisory work relating to conveyancing matters.
  • Advise on regulatory compliance, risk management, and relevant Victorian and Australian legislation.
  • Liaise directly with clients to provide practical, solutions-focused legal advice.
  • Manage files autonomously while maintaining high standards of accuracy and client service.

Requirements

  • Bachelor of Laws (LLB or JD) and admission to practice in Australia.
  • Minimum 3 years PQE in commercial and/or property law within a reputable Australian law firm.
  • Demonstrated experience in business transactions, commercial contract drafting, and leasing matters.
  • Strong understanding of Victorian property law and Australian commercial legal frameworks.
  • Ability to independently manage matters from instruction through to completion.
  • Excellent drafting, negotiation, and communication skills.
  • Strong attention to detail and commercial awareness.
  • Experience working with SME clients and high-net-worth individuals is advantageous.
  • Competitive compensation package.
  • Access to advanced legal operations and contract management tools.

If you are passionate about leveraging your commercial legal expertise to support innovative legal teams and dynamic businesses, while accelerating your professional growth — apply now!
