Description

Senior Lawyer | Franchising

LegalVision is a market disruptor in the commercial legal services industry. Our mission is to power the success of every business by delivering legal support that is proactive, affordable and commercial, and the key way we do this is through our industry-first legal services membership. We have assisted over 200,000 businesses across the UK, Australia and New Zealand, and we’re just scratching the surface. We were named Law Firm of the Year at the 2021 and 2022 Australasian Law Awards.

The Opportunity

We are looking for an experienced lawyer to join us as a Practice Leader in our successful Franchising team.

Our Franchising lawyers have worked with hundreds of franchisors (both Australian and international) to help grow their Australian franchise network. We assist with establishing franchise systems and the ongoing work that follows, including drafting and negotiating franchise grants, renewals and surrenders. We also assist clients with franchise buybacks and sales, franchising related disputes, as well as any other commercial legal needs they may have. To ensure you get a variety of work, you will also be assisting with some Intellectual Property matters.

The successful candidate will demonstrate strong technical ability in franchise law, effective project management and client service skills, and a genuine interest in people management as you will be responsible for managing a small team of talented lawyers, ensuring they are kept busy and engaged.

The Ideal Candidate

  • 4+ years experience from a reputable law firm or busy in-house team;
  • Demonstrated franchising law experience advising franchisors in relation to their obligations under the ACL and more specifically, the Franchising Code of Conduct;
  • Broad commercial and consumer law experience;
  • Enthusiastic about coaching and developing direct reports and other team members;
  • A desire to work closely with clients on a day to day basis, and a can do attitude;
  • Commercial acumen and the ability to think on your feet;
  • Excellent attention to detail and organisational skills;
  • The ability to step up and take on responsibility for day to day transactions;
  • Strong drafting skills (eg. franchising/commercial/business law documents, as well as articles for our website); and
  • A strong desire to get involved in broader business development activities both in the office and outside of it.

The Perks

  • Fast-paced NewLaw environment with minimal hierarchy and no corporate red tape.
  • Talented and energetic team members across Australia, New Zealand and UK.
  • Annual budget to spend on external learning opportunities.
  • Up to 25 days of paid annual leave per year, as well paid birthday leave, volunteering leave, and parental leave.
  • Regular team socials, drinks and team lunches.
  • Fun and relaxed office environment in Surry Hills super close to Central Station
  • WFH flexibility
