Mascot, Australia Transport for NSW Full time $180,000 - $250,000 per year

You're agile, keen and open to meaningful work and opportunities that come your way.

You've been looking for an opportunity to influence policies, initiatives, and projects that can improve the lives of millions of people.

In this role, you'll:

Provide legal advice within the Commercial, Technology and Property team and report to the Director Legal – Public Transport. You'll provide senior legal support for the procurement and negotiation of complex passenger service contracts and the acquisition of new buses as NSW transitions 8000 plus diesel and natural gas buses to battery electric technology.

You'll work closely with internal stakeholders and external partners to deliver legally sound, commercially strategic outcomes that support the future of public transport in NSW. This includes leading negotiations, drafting high-value contracts, and advising on procurement frameworks and risk management.

This temporary position up until September 2028 is available in a hybrid working model which are aligned with our Flexible Working Arrangements procedures which offers hybrid arrangements subject to approvals including having a mix two to three days in our Elizabeth Street office as well as remote working.

Apply now with your cover letter and resume.

For any enquiries, please contract Ciaran Martin on

About you

You bring at least five years of post-admission experience in commercial, construction or technology law, with a strong track record in managing complex contracts.

You're eligible to hold an unrestricted practising certificate and have demonstrated success in providing strategic legal advice in either a large in-house legal team, or in a private practice across a diverse client base ideally including public sector/government organisations.

Your ability to communicate clearly and influence effectively—especially with executive-level stakeholders—sets you apart. You're confident navigating high-stakes negotiations, solving legal and commercial problems, and delivering commercially focused outcomes that align with government priorities.

Experience in government procurement is desirable but not essential. What matters most is your integrity, professionalism, and commitment to contributing to the future of NSW.
