Purpose of the role

As a Senior Legal Counsel, you'll play a key role in enabling AMP's superannuation business and Trustee Office to deliver compliant, customer-centric products and services.

• Supporting the Superannuation Trustee Board with legal input on governance and strategic initiatives.
• Providing legal guidance on product disclosure, member communications and regulatory reporting (ASIC, APRA, ATO).
• Contributing to major business projects, identifying legal risks and supporting incident and breach assessments.
• Monitoring regulatory developments and shaping AMP's response to legislative change.
• Collaborating with internal stakeholders and external legal providers to deliver seamless legal support.
• Mentoring junior lawyers and contributing to legal knowledge sharing and continuous improvement.

What you will bring to the role

What we are looking for in you

We're looking for a proactive legal professional who thrives in a strategically important and highly regulated environment, bringing adaptability, legal rigour and a clear understanding of business priorities to every challenge. You'll bring excellent relationship-building and stakeholder engagement skills, with the confidence to navigate complex legal and regulatory matters while keeping customer outcomes and business priorities front of mind.

You'll be someone who applies sound judgment in day-to-day decision-making and is driven by solving complex problems with practical, business-aligned solutions. Your communication skills, whether written, verbal, virtual or face-to-face are exceptional and you're comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams.

If you're a trusted adviser who builds collaborative relationships, communicates with clarity and empathy and brings a curious, agile mindset to your work, we'd love to hear from you. You'll thrive in this role if you're a team player who mentors others and embraces continuous improvement.

You'll thrive here if…

If you can adapt from BAU to the ambiguous with ease, you'll do well here. Change is never easy, so bring your commitment, grit and growth mindset.

Because we run lean, you'll be expected to jump in and deliver across a variety of areas. Meaning, you'll be closer to the action and executive decisions that influence where we go next.

If you're someone that can hold their own, you'll find AMP quite liberating.

Why we think you'll love working at AMP

Doing what we've always done is not an option, so your clever ideas will get airtime here. You'll be encouraged to speak up and try new things. If they don't work, we move on - better for it.

We know there's no one way of doing things. So, you won't have to sacrifice who you are or how you work to fit in here. We're inclusive and flexible in many of the ways you'd expect. And in some of the ways you wouldn't. As long as your health and wellbeing come first - at home and at work.

In fact, most of what makes AMP such a welcoming, enjoyable place to work are our people. Wherever you go, you'll find moments to connect, feel valued and do meaningful work.

Whether it's through our first-class leaders who are invested in you and your success. Through year-round opportunities to volunteer, fundraise and give back to the community. Or in the everyday challenges you face as we work together to strengthen this great organisation. Challenges that will stretch you, amplify your potential and compound the impact you have.

We believe in the power of inclusion and diversity

We're dedicated to fostering inclusion, diversity, and a warm feeling of belonging at AMP. It sparks creativity, ignites innovation, and turns up the dial on the quality of our decisions and performance. This not only makes our workplace more engaged but also leads to better connections with our customers.

We're your allies in the search for the perfect fit - when you apply, let us know how we can support you to put your best self forward during our selection process.

We're also committed to enhancing employment opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, so we enthusiastically encourage candidates from these backgrounds to apply and explore our Reconciliation Action Plan on our website.

Ready to create your tomorrow?

If you're someone who sees opportunity where others see challenge, come and work with us in smart, progressive ways as we transform an iconic Australian brand for the future. And, through a series of career-defining moments, create your own tomorrow.

Don't procrastinate We review applications when we get them, and if we discover the ideal candidate, we may close the role earlier than the advertised close date.
