- Description

Clyde & Co is a global law firm with leading corporate clients. We have one of the largest, most experienced, and well-established Energy, Marine & Natural Resources (EMNR) teams in the world.

In Australia, Clyde & Co is ranked Tier One for shipping by Legal500 and Chamber & Partners. Two of our partners, Ernest van Buuren and Maurice Thompson have both been inducted into the Legal500 Hall of Fame for Shipping.

A client surveyed by Legal500 says "Clyde & Co has the pre-eminent shipping practice in Australia. The team's breadth, depth, and expertise is unrivalled. Clyde & Co is the only Australian law firm which is truly capable of conducting large complex shipping claims and litigation". Another client said to Chambers & Partners that the firm provides "swift and consistent outcomes on cross-border issues".

**About the role**

This role is to work largely with Partner Maurice Thompson and his national team. Maurice heads Clyde & Co's Australian EMNR practice, leads the Firm's EMNR partners in APAC, and sits on the Firm's global EMNR Executive. He is recognised as an industry leader and has an excellent reputation. Maurice's vision for Clyde & Co's Australian EMNR practice, based on a strong "team" ethos, has seen the EMNR group triple in size in the last few years.

We are currently looking for a smart and highly motivated Associate with between 1-2 years' experience to join the team in either Melbourne, Brisbane or Perth.

Our Australian EMNR team are leading specialists in their field, focusing on contentious and non-contentious marine, international trade, and transport law work. The work spans various sectors including marine, aviation, commodities, insurance, and energy. The focus of this role is contentious. It includes working with the national EMNR team on several large litigation projects, including current class actions.

You will work in a friendly and supportive national team which takes the sharing of knowledge, team inclusion, personal career development and career progression seriously. The nature of the team and the size of some of the litigious matters the team are currently handling means that you will be heavily involved in a "national team" environment in dealing with these matters, allowing you to make a significant contribution to both the outcome of the cases and the very 'fabric' of the team.

**Key Skills & Experience**

We are seeking an enthusiastic litigation Associate who will be able to demonstrate:

- 1-2 years PQE
- Experience working on litigation matters within the Supreme and Federal Courts, and a commitment to technical excellence
- Keen interest in the teams work which focuses on maritime, aviation, dispute resolution including class actions
- Established skills related to e-discovery and electronic data collection in the context of large, complex litigation
- Excellent academic credentials, self-driven with excellent verbal and written communication skills
- Pro-active critical and problem-solving skills to not only support the team's work but to also find creative new solutions
- Excellent organisational skills to provide timely responses to team and internal/external clients
- Strong time management skills and the ability to manage competing priorities effectively
- The ability to work co-operatively and collaboratively in a team environment
- A keen interest in your own professional development
- The ability to thrive in a high performing team environment.

You will also be Australian qualified with working rights and have experience gained in an international or leading national firm.

In return, you will benefit from being part of an organisation that is genuinely committed to its people. Within our friendly practice you will have access to a range of learning and development opportunities designed to support your ongoing progression.
