Ready to step into Partnership while maintaining an enviable coastal lifestyle? This independent, client-centric Queensland firm seeks an accomplished Commercial Property Partner to help shape the next phase of growth on the Sunshine Coast.

This is a rare chance to lead a respected practice, deepen relationships with a high-quality client base, and build a team in one of Queensland’s most desirable locations.

The Role

As part of the senior leadership group, you will own and expand the property practice, overseeing an established portfolio and a broad range of matters, including:
  • Commercial & industrial property transactions
  • Complex business sales and acquisitions
  • Land subdivisions and off-the-plan purchases
  • Unit & mixed-use developments
  • Commercial and industrial leasing
  • General property advisory for private and corporate clients
You’ll delegate effectively, supervise a capable team, and drive best-practice processes, client service, and profitability.

About You
  • 8+ years PAE in property/commercial property law with a strong transactions record
  • Commercial acumen, clear client communication, and proven team leadership/mentoring
  • Business development capability; an existing referral network is valued but not essential
What’s on Offer
  • Partnership from day one (open to current Partners or Senior Counsel seeking the step up)
  • Healthy work–life balance with flexible arrangements
  • A supportive, close-knit culture and strong market reputation
