4 days ago


Perth, Western Australia Mills Oakley Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year

About Us

Mills Oakley is a leading national law firm with a proud history spanning over 160 years. In that time, we've grown into a Top 10 Australian law firm by size while remaining true to our shared vision of exceptional client service with a friendly and collaborative ethos. Mutual trust and respect are at the heart of everything we do.

The Role

Due to growth, an exciting opportunity has arisen for an Associate or Senior Associate with between 3-6 years' PQE to join our Perth Planning and Environment team, supporting the partner. You will form part of the broader Property & Planning group but will work closely with the Planning & Environment partner on advising on a wide range of planning matters including development applications, merits appeals, due diligence, compulsory acquisition compensation claims, contaminated sites and all other forms of planning agreements. There is also high level admin law and compliance advice involved in some of the work that we do.

Who We Are Looking For

The ideal candidate will have between 3-6 years' PQE from a reputable practice or in-house role with exposure to property law and some exposure to planning and environment.  It goes without saying that you will have excellent legal advice skills, come with a high degree of technical ability and have strong business acumen. You may believe you are not far away from being considered for promotion to a Senior Associate role and we would welcome someone not far from promotion into the team.

What We Offer

We take a collaborative approach to your learning & development, giving you the personal attention and unique opportunities required to help you realise your full potential. We are committed to your health and well-being and offer a multitude of employee benefits including:

  • Flexible working;
  • Dress for your day;
  • Discounted health insurance;
  • Employee Assistance Program;
  • Discounts to gyms and studios across Australia;
  • Study and exam leave; and
  • Competitive referral bonus.

Apply

All applications must include a CV and Cover Letter addressed to the Talent Acquisition team and submitted online via our Careers page.
