Melbourne, Australia Moray & Agnew Full time

About us

Moray & Agnew is one of Australia’s leading specialist insurance law firms with over 700 employees nationally. We have offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Newcastle, Perth and Cairns, and have an unrivalled reputation in our market. Over the last decade, the firm has tripled in size to support the growth of our Australian and international clients.

Moray & Agnew are proudly committed to fostering a flexible, inclusive and diverse environment for our employees. In 2020 we were named one of the 25 most attractive firms to work at in Australia, and with the fourth highest percentage of female Partners according to the AFR Law Partnership Survey as at July 2022, we were identified as Australia’s most female-friendly firm by the Australian Financial Review.

We are passionate about what we do and want you to be too. We value technical excellence and the ability to function independently or in a team. We offer a unique workplace culture and excellent opportunities to further your personal and professional development.

About the role

With a consistent increase in work from some of Australia's largest home and contents insurers, our Property Damage Recoveries team have a brand new opportunity for a lawyer with 2-5 years' PQE to join their team.

Working under the guidance of a supportive Partner, this position will see you taking instructions and providing initial advices, drafting pleadings, liaising with clients, insurers and other lawyers, negotiating outcomes and attending to all stages of the litigation process. Additionally, there are opportunities to assist in business development.

About you

Ideally, you will have 2-5 years' PQE working in a law firm, and preferably have experience handling property damage recoveries for home and contents or commercial insurers. If you have experience in other motor vehicle claims or areas of insurance and a genuine interest in property damage, we encourage you to apply. We also invite applications from candidates at the Associate and Senior Associate level.

Culture & benefits of working with us

We celebrate diverse thinking and experiences. We encourage our employees to bring their true and authentic self to the workplace. To help support you in achieving this, we offer our employees a wide range of benefits and we are confident that you will find something to love at Morays:

  • Flexible working arrangements to help you balance your work and personal commitments.
  • Dress for your day because we trust our employees to make choices which appropriately represent the firm.
  • Continuous learning and development programs to ensure that you are always being challenged, engaged and encouraged to grow.
  • Health and wellness initiatives, including an Employee Assistance Program for yourself and your family, and corporate discounts at over 400 leading fitness and wellbeing brands across Australia.
  • Paid parental leave policy, and in addition, we are now accredited as a Breastfeeding Friendly Workplace.
  • Mentoring program to support your professional development.
  • Diversity, inclusion and equality – we have a comprehensive Diversity and Inclusion policy, and a number of employee reference groups (LGBTIQA+, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, Gender, Parents & Caregivers, Mature Workers, and Health & Wellbeing) to ensure that the firm continues to live its values.

We welcome people of all backgrounds and identities to apply to this position. If this opportunity is attractive to you, please submit your cover letter, CV and academic transcript.

Moray & Agnew encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander candidates. In the spirit of reconciliation Moray & Agnew acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to elders past, present and emerging and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.

If you require any adjustments to participate in our recruitment process, please let us know in your application.
