Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Talbot Sayer Full time

About the Role

This is a unique opportunity for an Associate or Senior Associate (2–7 years' post-admission experience) to join our Competition and Regulatory team in Brisbane, working directly with leading competition partner Susan Jones and alongside our Tier 1 M&A team.

You'll advise on competition law and merger clearance matters for an exceptional client base, including private equity funds, corporates, and founder-led businesses.

You'll gain exposure to a wide range of matters, including:

  • Merger notifications and obtaining ACCC clearance for deals;
  • Advising on competition and consumer law matters, including commercial transactions and strategies, ACCC investigations, enforcement proceedings and private litigation;
  • Advising on compliance with regulatory regimes for specific industries;
  • Supporting strategic corporate transactions and restructures;
  • Working closely with leading M&A partners and clients across multiple industries.

We are seeking a candidate with competition law experience and strong academic credentials who thrives in a team environment, demonstrates curiosity, and shows a genuine willingness to learn and grow.

Why Talbot Sayer

Our expertise spans the full range of corporate and competition-related matters. Our partners are recognised as leaders in their fields, having trained and worked in top-tier teams in Sydney, Brisbane and London.

We offer a unique environment that enables our lawyers to develop faster than their peers at our competitor in traditional large firms. This includes:

  • No billable hours targets;
  • Monthly reviews and a monthly bonus program of up to 50% of base salary, rewarding client outcomes; and
  • A structured learning program and a genuine commitment to development.

Talbot Sayer has a dynamic, collaborative culture where we value outcomes for clients over hours spent in the office. We take a contemporary approach to leadership, development and recognition, ensuring our lawyers are supported to succeed. We work hard, but maintain a sense of humour and make time to celebrate our wins together.

Applications

If you're a motivated lawyer with 2–7 years' post-admission experience and a passion for competition law, we'd love to hear from you.
