  • Eligible for a practising certificate in Queensland (and High Court register).
  • Skilled in litigation, ideally with exposure to leasing, property, or trusts.
  • Strong leadership capability with a track record of mentoring junior lawyers.

What's on Offer

  • Secure permanent role within a respected in-house legal team.
  • Chance to influence outcomes for vulnerable Queenslanders.
  • Litigation-heavy, diverse caseload with leadership responsibilities.
  • Generous public sector benefits: up to 12.75% super, leave loading, flexible work.
  • Part of a 12-month talent pool - opportunities may arise beyond this position.
