**About Ashurst**:
Ashurst is a leading global law firm with a history spanning more than 200 years, and clear strategy for our future growth. Our in-depth understanding of our clients and commitment to providing exceptional standards of service have seen us become a trusted adviser to local and global corporates, financial institutions and governments in all areas of commercial law.

In order to comply with regulatory and client requirements, Ashurst will undertake appropriate vetting of staff. When applicants accept a job offer, Ashurst, alongside a specialist provider, will undertake professional verification and background checks. These checks are only undertaken with consent, and in accordance with our legal and regulatory obligations.

**Ashurst Reach**:
Ashurst Reach is the firm's dedicated flexible legal resourcing platform which provides the firm's clients and Practice Groups within the firm with access to a high quality talent pool of lawyers and paralegals. We understand that our clients need access to highly qualified lawyers and paralegals, often at short notice and/or for short periods, whether that be to meet internal client demands, backfill leave, provide cover during recruitment or to assist with specialised projects. We deliver a seamless, fast and trusted solution to these issues.

Ashurst Reach is an integral part of the firm's NewLaw division, Ashurst Advance. Our focus is solving our clients' business problems through optimal efficiency, cost effectiveness and digitally innovative legal service delivery.

We work with a pool of talented Reach Legal Consultants, across a broad range of specialties. We strive to engage with lawyers who are technically-savvy and commercially-focused while also being creative and adaptable, and who thrive in new environments.

There are several benefits of working as a consultant with Ashurst Reach:

- Flexible career options - receive greater variety, choice and control over how and when you work, balancing career goals and lifestyle.
- Personalised service - collaborate closely with Ashurst Reach to realise your professional goals.
- Top-tier support - have the backing of a truly global firm with a reputation for high performance, a wealth of industry experience and a refreshingly open and diverse culture.
- Opportunities to work with a variety of world-class clients on challenging, interesting and career enhancing matters.
- Access to an Ashurst partner where appropriate, Ashurst's knowledge resources, invitations to events and training programs, client newsletters and seminars.
- Welcomed as a member of the Ashurst team and part of our community of Reach Legal Consultants.

With a growing base of clients in Sydney we would love to talk to lawyers with a current Practising Certificate (or ability to obtain one) who are interested in exploring opportunities to work with Ashurst clients or within one of the firm's Practice Groups.

We work with clients in all major cities in Australia. Most roles are hybrid and we can work with you to find a role that suits you in terms of numbers of days/hours worked.

**Employment lawyers needed**

We have had a consistent influx of roles seeking employment lawyers in Brisbane. If you are a strong employment lawyer with any of the following skills and are either a seasoned consultant/contract lawyer looking for a fresh approach, or a lawyer thinking of taking the leap to flex-working, get in touch with our **Talent Manager, Fiona Craig**, to find out more.

**Skills and Experience needed**:

- Minimum of 5 years' experience

As well as excellent legal experience you will need:

- Strong verbal and written communication skills with ability to interface at all levels, building strong relationships externally and internally
- Strong commercial and business acumen
