  • Registering business names;
  • ASIC Industry Funding and ASIC Regulatory Portal lodgements;
  • Overseeing ASIC filings and search requests for related practice groups within Baker McKenzie;
  • Conducting legal audits of corporate registers;
  • Reconstructing register of members and records;
  • Providing assistance and information to local and international offices of Baker McKenzie regarding corporate practices in Australia.

What we're looking for

  • At least 3 years' experience in a professional services environment;
  • Previous experience in a corporate paralegal or secretariat role;
  • Knowledge of the ASIC Regulatory portal or lodgement processes;
  • Excellent analytical, communication, and research skills;
  • A commitment to high work standards and strong attention to detail;
  • An ability to manage competing priorities and work flexibility;
  • An ability to demonstrate initiative and proactivity;
  • An ability to develop strong relationships;
  • An ability to work well in a team environment; and
  • A willingness to learn.
  • Financial benefits: competitive remuneration package, generous bonus scheme, salary continuance insurance, life insurance, salary sacrifice options, employee discounts, referral rewards, and travel insurance for you and your family
  • Learning & development opportunities: client and international office secondments and regional and global development programs
  • Flexibility: Hybrid and flexible working arrangements to balance your work and lifestyle
  • Leave: 26 weeks paid parental leave for all parents with no minimum service as well as the ability to purchase additional annual leave and flexible public holidays
  • Health & wellbeing programs: Employee Assistance Program including confidential counselling, wellbeing and financial coaching for you and your immediate family, flu vaccinations and discounted health insurance
