Sydney, New South Wales, Australia beBeeLawyer Full time $150,000 - $230,000

We are a modern Australian law firm with a leading reputation. We focus on exceptional service, operational excellence and being at the forefront of employee experience.

About the role

We are currently looking for a 2–4 year Construction Lawyer to join our highly regarded Sydney team. Our Construction team is well recognised by government departments, major construction companies and developer clients for practical and commercial advice.

In this role you will further progress your career whilst working with a supportive, close knit team. You will have the opportunity to work closely with partners and clients on interesting and high quality work.

Our back end team has a number of current mandates on several high profile proceedings in the Supreme Court of NSW, a significant portfolio of security of payment matters and regular work involving a variety of forms of ADR (including expert determination and mediation). Our front-end team is engaged on a number of projects across the public and private sectors, with an impressive mix of private, government and contractor clients.

About you

To be successful in this role, you will need to have a strong technical legal ability and a genuine interest in working in the construction and infrastructure sector.

You should have a client-focused approach with a deep understanding of commercial drivers.

Strong drafting skills, commensurate with level of experience, and a good eye for detail are also essential.

A mix of both back-end and front-end experience, preferably within a top-tier or mid-tier construction or projects team, would be highly regarded.

The ability to demonstrate exceptional drafting skills is also crucial.

About us

We are a proudly independent Australian law firm that works closely with corporations, businesses and governments throughout Australia and internationally. We have a particular focus on the built environment, education, government, healthcare and technology sectors.

Maddocks fosters a culture of collaboration, learning and engagement where you will experience:

A diverse and inclusive workplace: we have been named an employer of Choice for Gender Equality by the Workforce Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) every year since 2004, along with being named a Silver Employer at the Australian Workplace Equality Index's 2024 LGBTQ Inclusion Awards.

Career Development: Learn and develop through structured learning and development programs at each stage of your career and study support programs.

Community involvement: give back to the communities in which we operate through our thriving pro bono and grants programs and staff volunteering initiatives.

Work flexibly: work in a hybrid way with part of your week in the office and support to set up your home office.

Wellbeing & Benefits: access to up to 20 weeks paid parental leave, discounted gym memberships & health insurance, salary continuance insurance, Employee Assistance Program and parents and carers wellbeing programs.
