Join a leading Australian commercial mid-tier law firm with more than 800 professionals delivering high-quality legal services across the country. This is an outstanding opportunity for construction lawyers seeking variety, support, and genuine career progression within a national practice.

The Opportunity:

Unlike many construction roles, this position offers true flexibility in the type of work you do. You can enjoy a mix of front-end and back-end construction matters, or specialise in one area depending on your interests and strengths.

Based in the Brisbane office, you will be part of a well-resourced construction team working closely with highly regarded Partners, experienced senior lawyers, and supportive junior practitioners. You’ll benefit from strong administrative support and exposure to complex, high-value matters for major institutional clients, including:
  • Supreme Court construction litigation
  • Large-scale infrastructure adjudications
  • Drafting and negotiating construction and procurement contracts
You will enjoy:
  • Market-leading remuneration
  • 18 weeks’ paid parental leave
  • A high-value bonus structure with a Partner who actively rewards performance
  • Strong learning, development, and mentoring programs
  • Flexible working arrangements
  • A vibrant social culture and a genuine focus on wellbeing

We’re looking for a motivated SA who brings:
  • 5+ years’ PAE in construction law, or solid commercial litigation experience with a genuine interest in construction
  • Current Associate-level experience or readiness to step into an Associate role
  • A proactive, collaborative approach
  • A desire to build a long-term career within a national mid-tier firm
