Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Law Staff Full time $400,000 - $1,500,000 per year

Are you a senior legal professional feeling constrained by stagnant remuneration or a lack of transparency around equity?

This is your chance to redefine your career trajectory.

Why Join This Firm?

Join a progressive national law firm renowned for its technical expertise and entrepreneurial culture. With appointments across multiple government panels, the firm is heavily engaged in regulatory, transactional, and infrastructure matters.

Due to ongoing growth, there is an exciting opportunity for a Construction & Major Projects specialist – either an established Partner or an ambitious Special Counsel ready to step up.

About the Role

Work closely with three highly regarded Partners in the Projects & Infrastructure team, advising on major government and private sector projects nationally.

Ideal for lawyers with experience in Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and a strong background in infrastructure delivery.

Focus Areas Include:

  • Major transport, health, education, or energy projects
  • Construction contracts and complex advisory work
  • Government procurement and tendering processes
  • Project structuring, delivery, and risk management

Candidate Profile

  • PAE: 10–25 years
  • Location: Brisbane-based or open to relocation from another mid-tier or national firm
  • Expertise: At least two of the focus areas listed above
  • Networks: Strong relationships with State/Commonwealth Government and/or Tier 1 & Tier 2 Contractors
  • Leadership: Commercial acumen, client focus, and team mentoring experience

Salary & Benefits

This firm provides clear progression pathways and the financial incentives to match your experience.

  • Special Counsel: $290K+
  • Salaried Partner: $400K + bonuses
  • Equity Partner: $750K – $1.5M+

Unlike many firms reducing resources, this team invests heavily in operational support, allowing you to focus on practice growth and client success.
