With a team of over 185 professionals in offices in Adelaide and Sydney, we represent clients across various industries both nationally and internationally. Our firm takes pride in fostering a positive culture that empowers our employees to excel.


Founded over 30 years ago, we set out to disrupt the traditional reactive approach of commercial law firms by offering exceptional personal service with a proactive, global perspective. Although we have expanded to build a national presence, our commitment to helping clients seize opportunities and manage risks remains unchanged.

This role will see you:

  • Advising major ASX-listed, private and overseas companies on high-value, complex corporate matters, including clients in the water industry, defence sector, software industry, and other general corporate commercial sectors
  • Working on a wide range of transactions including capital raisings, mergers and acquisitions, corporate and business transactions
  • Delivering strategic legal and commercial solutions tailored to client needs
  • Collaborating closely with senior lawyers and directors on headline transactions
  • Being a member of a supportive and ambitious team committed to excellence and innovation


About you

We're looking for a commercially minded Associate with a strong foundation in corporate and commercial law, who thrives in a collaborative and client-focused environment.


In addition, you will be/have:

  • Minimum 3 years post-qualification experience in corporate and commercial law
  • Genuine transactional experience with a solid understanding of deal structures
  • Strong technical legal skills and attention to detail
  • Strong client-facing skills, with the confidence and communication ability to foster trusted relationships.
  • A team player who is proactive, motivated, honest, has high integrity and driven to deliver results


What will we offer you?

Cowell Clarke offers a broad range of financial and social benefits in addition to market leading careers and professional development programs. We're focused on developing our people's careers whilst ensuring they maintain a healthy lifestyle.


Some of our many employee benefits include broad learning & development opportunities, social clubs, sporting & team events, wellbeing and family support, e.g. discounts to gym memberships & private health insurance, paid parental leave and the option to purchase additional leave.
