High-Impact Legal Counsel - Retail Banking Expert

Opportunity for a seasoned lawyer to join a bank with strong values and a purpose-led culture, as it enters an exciting new phase of growth and evolution.

About the Role:

This is a high-impact position for an experienced legal professional ready to provide guidance across the full spectrum of banking and corporate operations. Reporting to the Chief Legal Officer and working within a respected and collaborative legal team, you will be instrumental in driving the organisation's compliance, governance and risk posture while enabling strategic and operational goals.

This role is ideal for a commercially savvy lawyer with broad in-house financial services experience, ready to navigate enterprise-wide legal issues—from mergers and employment law to IP/IT procurement and company secretarial matters.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide clear, commercially focused legal advice across banking, corporate, and financial services matters
  • Lead contract negotiation and management, including SLAs, supplier arrangements, finance agreements and corporate initiatives
  • Navigate a complex regulatory landscape and ensure compliance with relevant regulations
  • Support board and governance functions, including advice on director duties, conflicts of interest and statutory reporting
  • Collaborate with business units on risk management and dispute resolution strategies
  • Foster strong stakeholder engagement across senior leadership and external stakeholders

Requirements & Experience:

  • Admitted solicitor in NSW with at least 7–10 years' post-qualification experience in financial services, banking or corporate law
  • Expertise in consumer and retail banking law, with an ability to manage a broad portfolio of legal issues (including employment, IP/IT procurement and governance)
  • Strong knowledge of financial services laws and regulations
  • Proven stakeholder management skills and the ability to influence at executive level
  • A collaborative, pragmatic and commercially minded approach to legal problem-solving

A highly respected and dynamic organization seeks a talented legal professional to join their team.

Benefits:

  • Competitive remuneration package
  • Opportunities for career growth and development
  • Collaborative and supportive work environment

Stakeholders include senior leadership, regulators, and external counsel. A strong network of relationships and effective communication are essential for success in this role.
