We are seeking an experienced Senior Generalist Solicitor to join a respected Community Legal Centre in Broken Hill. This role goes beyond standard practice, it's about delivering access to justice, shaping social change, and leading within a values-driven community organisation.

Why join this role?
  • Lead and mentor junior solicitors while working alongside an experienced Principal Solicitor.
  • Deliver meaningful legal services across family law, family violence, tenancy, traffic, employment, credit & debt, and victim support.
  • Be based in Broken Hill, a vibrant heritage city with a welcoming community, thriving arts scene, and outback lifestyle.
  • Enjoy additional benefits including salary packaging, flexible work arrangements, paid study leave, and an Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
What you'll do
  • Provide high-quality, free and accessible legal services to vulnerable communities in Far West NSW.
  • Represent clients in Broken Hill and Wilcannia Local Courts, including duty lawyer services.
  • Deliver outreach to towns including Wilcannia, Menindee, Ivanhoe, Tibooburra and White Cliffs.
  • Contribute to community legal education and law reform to strengthen access to justice.
  • Mentor and guide legal practitioners, supporting a collaborative, community-focused team.
About you
  • At least 3 years' post-admission experience with an unrestricted NSW Practising Certificate.
  • Strong experience in legal advice, advocacy, and representation, ideally with disadvantaged clients.
  • Confident working across diverse areas of law with autonomy and resilience.
  • Skilled in mentoring, team collaboration, and community engagement.
  • A current driver's licence and willingness to travel locally with a team for outreach work

Broken Hill isn't just a place to live - it's a lifestyle. As Australia's first heritage-listed city, it offers:

  • A thriving arts and cultural scene - film festivals, live music, galleries and a rich Indigenous history.
  • Affordable cost of living - enjoy more space and a quality lifestyle without city prices.
  • Tight-knit community - a welcoming and supportive environment where your contribution is truly valued.
  • Balanced lifestyle - no long commutes, more time to connect with community and the unique outback landscape.

This is your chance to combine career growth with regional living - making a genuine difference while enjoying the benefits of a relaxed and rewarding lifestyle.
