Seeking a remarkable Senior Associate to join our Workplace Relations, Employment & Safety (WRES) practice in Brisbane

  • Join a top tier, marketing leading WRES Practice
  • Collaborate and contribute to a successful and impactful team
  • Work with a variety of clients, and work on significant, high-profile matters

The Role

We have an exciting opportunity for Senior Associate to join Brisbane's market leading Workplace Relations, Employment, and Safety (WRES) legal practice. Working with all three workplace partners Shae McCartney, Christy Miller, and Hilary Searing. This opportunity is a full-time permanent position. With the practice group going from strength to strength, the three partners are looking for the right candidate to be part of the future growth of the group.

We consider ourselves passionate, innovative, creative, practical, and down to earth. We take pride in our team successes, and we want our team to come up with new ways to deliver the best service to our clients. Our clients' businesses are our business, and we want our team to be curious, analytical to challenge the norm and to look for solutions not just give advice.

Our Brisbane WRES team advises on all aspects of workplace relations including industrial relations, employment, occupational health and safety and anti-discrimination. This unique opportunity gives the right candidate the chance to grow their career by working across varied and interesting matters – from industrial strategy and disputes, project management and support, compliance and regulatory matters, restructuring, underpayments and litigation across most Courts and Tribunals.

Skills & Experience
To be successful in this role, the following attributes will be required:
  • Proven experience as a Senior Associate working on a range of employment and industrial relations matters. Safety experience is desirable
  • Ability to draft clear, concise, correct and commercial advice and documents
  • A strong sense of purpose, ambition and a proactive approach to your work
  • Strong people skills; the ability to communicate and build a rapport with our clients
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills and an ability to communicate with impact to both internal contacts and external clients
  • An appetite, and demonstrated ability to mentor and coach more junior team members
  • A high degree of initiative, dedication and organisational ability with a strong client and commercial focus
  • A proactive attitude towards personal development to expand your skills and knowledge to meet client needs
  • In addition to this, we're looking for a driven, 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 WRES team

With some of Australia's leading workplace lawyers we are the go-to team for large organisations with challenging workplace needs. We work with our clients across the full spectrum of the employment relationship; from recruitment through to management, and termination. Our work spans all facets of employment law, industrial relations, discrimination, work health and safety, executive remuneration and transactional support.

Our clients include many international and ASX 200 listed companies, leading universities, government and private sector organisations. For further information, please visit our Workplace Relations, Employment and Safety showcase page on LinkedIn.
