Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia Better Lawyers Group Full time $60,000 - $80,000 per year

The Brand

Enterprise Legal was co-founded in 2017 by current owner and Managing Director, Peta Gray. In a local market saturated by traditional law firms, Peta felt like the majority of lawyers were simply 'going through the motions' and doing things 'the way that they had always been done' for no other reason than simply that. She felt that clients, especially those located outside of the capital cities, deserved better from their lawyers and she set about starting Enterprise Legal with the audacious goal of 'doing the law better'. From its inception, Enterprise Legal has offered specialised Business, Property and Disputes legal services of the highest quality, with a focus on delivering practical and commercially-savvy outcome for it clients. We are proudly Toowoomba's most highly-awarded Firm.

The Location

We're based right in the heart of Toowoomba, just 90 minutes from Brisbane, so you can swap long city commutes for fresh country air and still head back for weekend catch-ups, concerts or footy games. Think big career opportunities in a growing regional hub, with the bonus of affordable living, leafy parks and zero traffic stress. You'll be joining a fun, young team that actually enjoys working together (and having a laugh), so your weekdays are just as good as your weekends.

The Opportunity

Due to the ongoing expansion of our Enterprise Legal Team, we are looking for an Early Career Lawyer who wants to kick-start their legal career. This role would suit a law student in their final year of study (provided they can work full-time hours), a recent Graduate studying PLT or a lawyer in their first year of legal practice. Be assured that all applications will be kept strictly confidential and no contact will be made with existing employers.

In this role, you will work directly with and be mentored by Senior Associate, Johnathon Althaus and Managing Director, Peta Gray.

The successful candidate will have exposure to a wide variety of work and clients, working predominantly on disputes matters including (but not limited to) in the following areas:

  1. building & construction;
  2. employment;
  3. debt recovery;
  4. land compensation matters; and
  5. compulsory acquisition claims.

The candidate will also have the chance to work on 'front-end' business matters, including researching and preparing client advices and preparing legal documents.

The Perks

Key perks of the role include:

  • competitive salary-packaging;
  • active mentoring and career development;
  • the opportunity to work for a Nationally-recognised and Award-winning brand, while based in a Regional Area;
  • access to the highest quality IT, software and subscriptions required to perform the role effectively and efficiently;
  • two paid mental-health days per year (in addition to normal leave entitlements);
  • access to our Suncorp Stadium Members Seats for a minimum of two games per year;
  • complimentary internal and external professional development opportunities;
  • access to discounted mobile phone and internet plans for you and your family;
  • complimentary estate planning documents (Will and EPOA) for yourself and discounted services for your immediate family members;
  • paid time off to fulfil relevant community commitments (eg. roles on local Board/Associations/Clubs/P&Cs);
  • membership to the Firm social club; and
  • as much in-house barista-made coffee as you can drink

If you are ready to elevate your legal career, then apply now.
