- Permanent, full-time

**How will I help?**

We have an excellent opportunity for a Paralegal to join the WIB Financial Markets Legal Team.

You will be involved in preparing and negotiating key Financial Markets agreements (in particular, ISDA agreements covering derivatives transactions) and associated activities, including systems updating and reporting. This is a great opportunity to gain exposure to a highly sophisticated business, support a premium institutional client base and acquire a sought-after skillset.

Your key responsibilities will include:

- Drafting, reviewing, and working with the business to negotiate agreements.
- Updating key bank systems with relevant information and participating in associated risk control and data quality activities.
- Working closely with financial markets lawyers as required.

**What's in it for me?**

You will play an important and significant part in the future of a business that has been around for 200 years. Our vision is to become one of the world's great service companies. So, we will back you in the development of your career, with internal career prospects and flexible working. You will also be backed by a fantastic team of people in a can-do, supportive structure.

Whatever shape your family takes, we offer generous paid and unpaid parental leave for your nominated primary and support carers. This includes leave to organise adoptions, surrogacy, and foster care arrangements. And we continue to pay your super contributions while you take all the time you need to get your new family settled.

**What do I need?**

This role would suit a law graduate in the process of becoming qualified as a legal practitioner, an experienced paralegal, or a law student with a degree of professional experience who is looking to develop their drafting and negotiation skills and gain experience in financial services.
- Strong interpersonal skills including the ability to build and sustain key relationships with business partners, WIB Legal colleagues and law firms
- Strong analytical skills and attention to detail
- A self-starter, with initiative to drive matters forward and willingness to learn
- Strong time management skills
- Experience with ISDA negotiations as a Paralegal will be looked upon favourably but is not essential for the role.
- Experience in helping to coordinate a team and/or key business processes will also be looked upon favourably but is not essential.

**What is it like to work there?**

As well as a great culture, joining the Westpac family means you'll get some of the best banking, wealth, and insurance benefits in the market. We back our employees by coaching and facilitating training and providing career planning tools for you to grow with us. As an equal opportunity employer, we're proud to have created a culture and work environment that values diversity and flexibility - and champions inclusion.
