This in-house role is ideal for a corporate lawyer with a strong commercial foundation, looking to step into a broader business-facing position within a listed environment.
The Opportunity

- Offer pragmatic, responsive legal advice across a fast-paced and evolving business landscape
About You
- 8–12 years' post-admission experience in corporate or commercial law
- Strong foundation in company law, governance and ASX compliance
- In-house legal experience is preferred, or demonstrated desire to move from private practice into a commercially embedded role
- Comfortable managing a broad remit and partnering directly with non-legal stakeholders
- Practical, down-to-earth, and resilient, with strong communication and prioritisation skills
- Flexible and willing to grow with the evolving demands of the business
