Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Allied Legal Full time $150,000 - $200,000 per year

About Us

Allied Legal is a fast-growing, modern boutique commercial law firm specialising in Australia's thriving startup and scaleup ecosystem, though we're not limited to it. We also support SMEs and corporate clients across a wide range of sectors. Our growing team brings expertise across law, finance, tech, and marketing. From complex M&A and capital raising to contracts and commercial agreements, we're in the thick of it. We also have an expanding litigation and disputes practice. The best part? We work on exciting, high-growth matters across tech, innovation, and beyond.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Work across a broad range of commercial and corporate matters, including commercial contracts, litigation, restructuring, capital raising, IP protection and commercialisation, regulatory advice, and M&A transactions. You must have an appetite to work across transactional and litigious matters.

  • Collaborate closely with a passionate and experienced team to build and grow strong client relationships.

  • Gain exposure to high-growth sectors such as fintech, MedTech, e-commerce, education, agriculture, and renewables.

  • Draft, review, and negotiate complex transactions and strategic agreements that shape the future of emerging businesses.

  • Play a key role in shaping our culture, and contribute to business development and marketing initiatives that support our continued growth.

Why Join Us

At Allied Legal, we're a diverse team fostering a safe, fun, and collaborative workplace culture that values autonomy.

  • A friendly, inclusive, and transparent team culture where your contributions are valued.

  • A flat, non-hierarchical structure that's genuinely merit-based as your impact matters more than your title.

  • A strong focus on work-life balance, with realistic expectations and a supportive environment.

  • Regular team outings and social events to foster connection and celebrate our wins together.

  • A flexible working model, with a balanced mix of work-from-home and in-office collaboration.

What We're Looking For

We're after someone who's not just technically strong, but also passionate about client relationships, contributing positively to our culture and working across a diverse range of industry sectors and work. To be considered, you must have:

  • At least 3 - 6 years of experience as a Commercial & Corporate Lawyer in Australia

  • Strong drafting and negotiation capabilities, with a proven ability to handle commercial contracts and corporate documents with precision

  • Exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal – you're a clear thinker, confident speaker, and effective writer

  • A personable, polished approach with a strong client-first mindset and the ability to build meaningful relationships

  • A proactive, collaborative attitude, and a genuine desire to be part of building something innovative within the legal industry

  • Familiarity with the Australian startup ecosystem is a bonus, but not essential
