The Role

Propel your legal career by joining Australia's largest specialty Corporate, Energy and Resources and Native Title practice. We currently have two unique opportunities working in the group. In these roles, you will be advising on some of Australia's most high profile M&A matters and drafting regulatory, general commercial, land access, and native title advice, negotiating related agreements and conducting associated litigation on some of the most significant projects in Australia. You will also be providing advice to both Australian and International clients across the life cycle of their projects including managing their energy transition and work on first of its kind energy transition projects. You will be able to act for private and government clients and traditional owners.

Working with our market-leading energy and resources and native title team Stuart MacGregor , Ben Cansdale , Katy Warner , and Mark Geritz , this role will have you working on a wide variety of matters, ranging from cross border M&A and project development in the mining, gas, green infrastructure and clean energy areas (including pumped hydro, wind and solar generation, battery storage and hydrogen projects) and associated infrastructure including pipelines, transmission lines, port, and rail projects.

At Clayton Utz, you will also discover that flexibility is an absolute priority for diversity and inclusion and that all our team members utilise varied formal and informal flexible arrangements. Our lawyers are encouraged and supported to utilise these arrangements to best balance their life and career commitments.

Skills & Experience

To be successful in either of these roles, the following attributes will be required:

  • Practising experience of 3-7 years to Senior Associate level
  • An experienced corporate M&A, commercial or regulatory lawyer
  • Experience in the Energy and Resources industry, in particular in regards to clean energy, electricity, mining/commodities or oil and gas marketing, transportation, processing and joint venture arrangements, will be well regarded but not essential
  • Strong people skills; the ability to communicate and build a rapport with our clients
  • A willingness and desire to commit to potential client secondments to leading energy and resources clients
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills and an ability to communicate with impact to both internal contacts and external clients
  • A team player with strong time and project management skills
