About Our Company

Established in Melbourne, our client remains privately owned by the founders. They have built a successful food franchise business with over 60 locations across metropolitan areas in Victoria and NSW.

We pride ourselves on a fair and democratic company approach that centralises success and growth to benefit all employees.

The Role

This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified lawyer to join our team as a Senior Corporate Lawyer. You will be responsible for managing new and existing franchise agreements, advising on the nuances of franchise law, and ensuring compliance to franchise law and company expectations.

  • You will support the leasing of sites nationally, acting on behalf of the company, while advising franchise owners on their legal options and providing them with adequate support.
  • You will provide legal input to strategy meetings within the company, focusing on sales and operations, as well as corporate topics.
Requirements

To be successful in this role, you must be a qualified lawyer with an unrestricted practising certificate. Previous experience in franchise law and/or leasing is preferable, but if you are still new in these areas and willing to learn autonomously, we encourage you to apply.

  • You should be an independent worker who can manage your workload autonomously and be trusted to deliver results.
  • You must be able to develop expertise in broader areas through exposure and have a willingness to proactively develop the position into a General Counsel role.
  • Able to work 1-2 days per week from our office in Fitzroy and spend time with our teams to ensure they feel comfortable asking for legal advice when needed.
What We Offer

We offer a positive working environment with flexible arrangements to suit caregiver responsibilities, hybrid WFH setups, direct exposure to C-Suite reporting to CFO, and working closely with CEO. Additionally, you will receive discount vouchers for franchise locations, a salary of $130k-$150k + super + bonus, and more.
