IFM Investors prides itself on promoting an outstanding workplace culture and strong alignment with its clients. The company's heritage and philosophy have shaped an innovative and highly successful organisation that prioritises client outcomes.

This role offers a rare opportunity to join a world-class in-house legal team and gain valuable experience in commercial law. Working closely with a talented Senior Legal Counsel, you will contribute to the success of the organisation by providing both legal expertise and commercial acumen.

You will be responsible for reviewing, drafting, and negotiating procurement contracts, including consulting and services agreements, IT contracts, and marketing agreements. You will also have the opportunity to work on fundraising, funds, and investment matters on an ad hoc basis.

To succeed in this role, you will need 4-6 years of post-qualification experience gained in a respected law firm or in-house. Strong drafting, negotiation, and verbal and written communication skills are essential. Experience in drafting procurement contracts, including technology contracts and services agreements, will be highly regarded.

In addition to your technical skills, you must offer a can-do, hands-on attitude, be curious to learn, and keen to collaborate with stakeholders across the business. You will be expected to juggle multiple tasks and deliver results in a timely fashion.

This is a based-in-Melbourne opportunity with attractive remuneration and bonus participation. As a key member of the in-house legal team, you will have the chance to make a meaningful contribution to the success of IFM Investors.
