  • Communicating the vision and purpose of C&M to the firm to heighten its understanding of the role of C&M as trusted advisers
Skills & Experience

  • Relevant tertiary qualifications (either business or legal) coupled with legal/business development experience gained ideally from a professional services environment (experience in the energy and resources sector would be advantageous)
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills, the ability to influence, persuade and negotiate outcomes
  • Strong tender management skills and a proactive and pragmatic style
  • Proven leadership skills, including people/team management experience
  • Agility and proactivity, a connector and collaborator
  • Curiosity and intellect an ability to ask the right questions and listen to the response
  • Business acumen understanding drivers of the business
  • Ability to build rapport and relationships, with a strong good influencing and consulting style


In addition to this, we're looking for a resilient, self-starter; someone who is able to work autonomously and is focused on attention to detail and providing an outstanding service to their clients.

The Clients & Markets team


The Clients and Markets (C&M) team is responsible for providing services and advice on client relationship management, client relationship marketing, branding and design, market & industry analysis, media and corporate affairs, legal communications and tenders.


In Clayton Utz's Brisbane office, you will discover a dynamic, supportive, and diverse team, which balances high performance with a down-to-earth and pragmatic approach to work and life.

We're looking for individuals who will thrive under our spirit of independence. Dynamic personalities who can collaborate, innovate and strive for success within our collegiate culture. In return we will work to help build the career you've always wanted. Are you up for the challenge?

Imagine what you could achieve at a top law firm that actually values independent thinking. A law firm who challenges the status quo.

Go on, challenge your expectations.
