- Contribute to process improvements and ensure compliance with ALS policies, values, and legislation.
- Uphold EEO, WHS standards, and perform additional duties as required.

**Who Are We Looking For?**

- Formal paralegal qualification or currently studying law, with strong legal knowledge and computer skills.
