About us

Our client is an established and well-respected law firm with a reputation for specialized experience, pragmatism, efficiency, enthusiasm, and personalized service.

With offices based in the heart of Melbourne’s central business district, and outer suburbs, they are a unique blend of tradition and contemporary, drawing on their wealth of experience to advise clients on commercial, property, litigation, media, workplace relations and family law matters.

They aim to build long-term relationships with their people and their clients and work hard to achieve great outcomes together, while genuinely valuing the well-being their people.

About the role

They have an exciting opportunity for a Lawyer with general litigation experience with an interest and experience in any of the following areas:

You will also be someone who is approachable and a confident communicator. Teamwork should come naturally to you and above all else, you must be committed to delivering the very best legal and commercial outcomes for clients. We are looking for a person who is approachable and will grow with the team.

Their culture

Maintaining a happy, healthy culture is important. It’s also good business because they know that an investment in workplace culture yields abundant returns.

When you can expect:

  • Team-focused, inclusive, supportive colleagues
  • Constructive, honest and respectful feedback
  • Fairness and open-mindedness
  • Excellent opportunities and challenging projects
  • Flexible arrangements are available to provide the opportunity to work a combination of working within the office and at home.
