Maddocks is committed to making a difference for our clients, our people and the communities in which we operate.

**About the role**

We currently have an opportunity for a 2-3 year PQE Property & Construction Lawyer to work as part of a high performing team that prides itself on providing quality commercially focused legal advice. This is an exciting opportunity to work and learn directly from experienced and well regarded practitioners including a partner, special counsel and senior associates as part of our established but growing practice. We deliver on a range of matters for our government and private sector clients in the following areas including high profile and complex matters:

- Property acquisitions and disposals
- Commercial leasing
- Property advisory
- Capital works & procurement projects
- Planning and environment regulation and approvals

**About you**

You will have experience advising clients on various property matters and transactions either in the ACT or NSW.

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. Our commitment to our clients and their goals is matched by our commitment to our people and their career goals.

**What makes us unique**

We look for diversity of experience and background and then provide the tools for career success. We will provide you with targeted training and development programs so that you can achieve your career goals.

Maddocks offers opportunities to work flexibly and provides access to a wide range of staff benefits, including discounted private health cover and access to our comprehensive Health & Wellbeing and Learning & Development programs.

We are proud leaders of the legal profession when it comes to promoting a diverse workforce. We have been an Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Agency (EOWA) Employer of Choice for Women every year since 2004. We promote diversity internally through our Maddocks Women and Maddocks Pride groups and we are committed to sustainability through our membership of the Australian Legal Sector Alliance (AusLSA). We also have a thriving pro bono practice, which in FY19 completed more than 9,100 hours of pro bono work for a wide range of community organisations and individuals.
