THE OPPORTUNITY

You’ll be joining a national Construction Projects Disputes team, giving you exposure to a diverse range of Partners and lawyers across multiple offices. The team advises on major projects and complex disputes across Australia, including:
  • Commercial and contractual disputes in infrastructure, resources, property development, and renewable energy projects.
  • Supreme Court litigation

You’ll enjoy a broad variety of high-quality work across top-tier clients and sectors. This role will offer a comfortable stretch of your existing skill set, with the support of an accessible Partner who provides hands-on mentoring and guidance.

ABOUT YOU

We’re seeking a lawyer with a minimum of 3 years’ PAE in construction matters -  ideally across projects, litigation, and claims resolution (applications considered up to Senior Associate level).

Your experience will likely come from a specialist, mid-tier, or top-tier firm. Both front-end and back-end candidates are encouraged to apply.
This firm values teamwork, good humour, and kindness, and is looking for people who share those values.

We've noticed that lawyers sometimes wait until after the new year to apply for new roles, but this delay can work against you. By submitting your applications now, you'll get ahead of the rush and avoid competing with other similar candidates.
