Senior In-house Lawyer – Employment
6 days ago
This is a rare opportunity to step into a leadership role, leading a small, service-driven team while enjoying a supportive work environment. This well-established legal team is bidding farewell to their Legal Practice Director, who is retiring after 10+ years of dedicated leadership. Now, they are looking for a passionate legal professional to join as the Legal Practice Director to continue fostering a positive and people-first approach to legal services.
About the Role:
The successful lawyer will oversee the provision of legal services to the organisation's members and wider business. You will lead a collaborative, service-driven team, offering advice on employment, workplace relations, and commercial matters in a positive and people-centric environment.
Key Responsibilities:
- Advising clients on employment, industrial relations, and workplace relations matters.
- Representing clients in the Fair Work Commission, WAIRC, and relevant courts and tribunals.
- Providing advice to the wider business on commercial contracts, including reviewing and drafting terms and conditions.
- Advising on compliance, corporate governance, strategy, policies, procedures, and operational structures.
- Managing internal and external stakeholder relationships while fostering a culture of collaboration and support.
What's on Offer?
- Car allowance, free parking, and other additional benefits.
- Generous training budget with genuine opportunities to develop both legal and leadership skills.
- If required, our client will pay for you to complete the practice management course.
- A true work/life balance - no weekend or after-hours work required.
- A warm, approachable, and supportive culture that values teamwork, personal development, and well-being.
Who We're Looking For:
We are keen to speak to employment and workplace relations lawyers with 6-15+ years' of experience who have a collaborative mindset and a passion for leadership. Experience in managing a team will also be highly regarded.
We will consider applications from lawyers at the SA/SC level who are not already practicing as a partner or principal, or who have not yet undertaken the LPMC course.
This is an exceptional opportunity to step into a pivotal leadership role in a highly respected organisation that understands the importance of both professional success and personal well-being.
