  • 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
