We are 50 years old, and have 280 staff including a specialist Through Care service to complement our legal services. We are fully government funded, and this Legal role is tied to ongoing funding, currently set to 30 June 2025.

Opportunity

You will have frequent opportunity to provide expert casework assistance and information directly to clients, and to external stakeholders about client matters. You can rely on the State-wide resources of the Principal Legal Officer and the Directors of Law (Family, Civil and Criminal) and your immediate legal team. The development of culturally competent legal services is inherent in this role, so you will likely achieve a degree of confidence in this specialist area.

Selection Criteria: 

ESSENTIAL CRITERIA (7)

1. Values: Alignment to the values and vision of ATSILS and an appreciation of and sensitivity to the challenges our clients have faced, and continue to face, in their fight for and their right to justice and equity.

2.

3. Client representation and data management: sound interpersonal and communication skills including a demonstrated ability to empathetically convey sound information or advice to clients, and to present casework documents and relevant statistical reports and applications.

4. Core legal duties: experience (or an in-depth understanding) of both high-level client services in Family and Civil Law proceedings (including casework relating to Child Protection and Domestic Violence applications; plus, casework relating to Civil Litigation generally, such as Anti-discrimination matters, Estates, and Consumer Protection type matters).

5. Experience (or proven advocacy capacity) in Criminal Law: with both adult and youth jurisdictions and a demonstrated knowledge of diversionary alternatives available to Police/Magistrates/Judges is essential. Your capacity to provide both high-level client services in Criminal Law proceedings (including making applications for bail; pleas in mitigation; appearing at call-overs, committal hearings and summary hearings).

6. Confidence in and knowledge of legislation: an in-depth working knowledge of key legislation, practices and procedures in the fields of Family Law (Family, Child Protection and Domestic Violence matters), and for Civil Law, a range of legislation such as the Succession Act. An in-depth working knowledge of the Youth Justice Act 1992, (as amended) and the Criminal Code 1899, (as amended).

7. Access, teamwork and communication: preparedness to work after hours if necessary; willingness to assist in the development of Court Support/Field Officers’ and other staff training/education.

DESIRABLE CRITERIA (3)

1. Ability to use Microsoft Office in a Windows networked environment.

2. Mobility, access and safety:

• a current Queensland Driver Licence and ability to drive in all reasonable conditions may be required for the role, dependent upon the location;

• a willingness to undergo a Criminal Record Check to achieve a National Police Certificate (Australia-wide Disclosable Criminal History).

Candidates may be required to disclose misconduct (criminal convictions, prosecution investigations etc.,) that prevent an ATSILS Security clearance in relation to any conviction for fraud or other dishonesty related criminal offences. To this end, a preferred candidate must be prepared to consent to a criminal history check being conducted (if requested). Note: A criminal history does not automatically preclude selection for interview, and a preliminary check can be discussed with the HR Manager after a candidate has been shortlisted for interview.

3. Minimum two (2) years post admission experience: is ideal. Graduates with a significant comprehension of the application of relevant legislation and employment experience may be afforded an interview.
