Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Aussie Broadband Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year
We're looking for a Legal Counsel to join us in a hybrid, permanent role.

At Aussie Broadband, our Legal team is a strategic partner to the business, providing expert guidance across legal, regulatory, and commercial functions. We're involved in a wide range of work that helps drive the business forward.

We're looking for a qualified lawyer, admitted to practice in Australia, with in-house experience and exposure to governance. Telco or ASX-listed experience is a plus, but not essential.

In this role, you'll engage with a varied legal portfolio while supporting the Assistant Company Secretary on board governance and regulatory compliance - making a genuine interest in corporate governance a key asset.

At Aussie Broadband we believe difference is something to celebrate. Being advocates for Inclusion and Diversity means our team can bring their whole selves to work and allows us to better represent our customers and the communities that we serve. As a proud Equal Opportunity Employer, supporting and celebrating difference is just one way that we demonstrate our value of 'Be good to people' everyday. 

Join us as we continue to grow and make a mark as the 5th largest telco in Australia

We are proud to be a B Corp Certified company, which means we're good to our people, our customers, and the planet by maintaining the highest standards for social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.

We care about our community through our Pledge 1% commitment, sponsorship programs and our paid staff community service leave offering.  

But don't just take our word for it – We have been named one of the top employers in Australia by HRD magazine.

The good stuff

  • 26 weeks paid parental leave for both primary and secondary caregivers (in addition to any government-paid leave)

  • Discounted internet up to the value of $109 per month

  • 20% off our Mobile services 

  • Day to day benefits like flexible working arrangements, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), discounts with big names like Specsavers, HCF and many more

  • Celebrating you With monthly rewards and recognition

  • Internal training and resources for you to continue to learn, grow and achieve your career goals

  • Yearly allowance for amazing Aussie merch

Let's talk about you

To be successful in this role you will possess:

  • A Bachelor of Laws degree or equivalent, and admission to practice in Australia

  • Experience in-house, with exposure to governance or company secretarial work

  • Strong commercial judgment and ability to assess risk quickly

  • Confident communicator who speaks up when it matters

  • Telco or ASX-listed company experience is a plus, but not essential

Proven ability to:
·      Make sound decisions under pressure
·      Lead with problem-solving mindset

How will you support our "Why?"
