1 week ago

Canberra, ACT, Australia Approach Consulting Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

Join a firm where every case matters.

Approach Consulting have partnered with Canberra's leading plaintiff-side personal injury firm known for standing with individuals against powerful institutions. With a strong reputation in personal injury (medical negligence, motor vehicle accident, public liability and historical abuse), this firm is seeking a passionate and driven Personal Injury Lawyer to join its dedicated team.

This role will sit within the Historical Abuse practice under the guidance of one of Asutralia's most outspoken advocates. We are looking for an emotionally intelligent, warm and hard-working lawyer (ideally with previous personal injury experience). You'll be guided and supported in your role within a collegiate and people-focused environment, with the partners and senior lawyers providing close mentorship and guidance along the way.

The role.

This is a full-time opportunity to work on meaningful, high-impact cases while growing your legal career within a firm that values justice, compassion, and integrity.

The practice has a sole focus on historical abuse matters across Australia.

Liaising effectively with clients, experts, and counsel to progress matters strategically and empathetically will be a key component in your success.

What's on offer.

  • Down-to-earth and supportive law team advocating for those that need it most.
  • Opportunity for infrequent travel (matters across Australia, not just the ACT).
  • Office located in Canberra CBD.
  • Learn from Canberra's leading Historical Abuse team.

About you.

  • Ideally 1-3 PQE within personal injury/civil litigation (experience with Historical Abuse matters ideal).
  • High EQ and excellent communication skills.
  • A proactive and organised approach to workflow.
  • Demonstrated ability in assisting clients during challenging life circumstances.

Ready to make a difference?

If you're looking to provide meaningful advice and support with a firm that values your contribution and supports your development, we'd love to hear from you.
