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

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Lawyer with up to 6 years’ PAE to join our Workers’ Compensation team in our Perth office.

This role will see you working closely with our leading specialist lawyers, including a Partner ranked as a Leading Lawyer by Doyle’s Guide.

It is a wonderful opportunity to learn valuable and practical skills, and the work will include a variety of workers' compensation and common law actions on behalf of major insurers.

About you

If you are a Lawyer with up to 6 years’ PAE and have experience in personal injury law, we would love to hear from you. This hands-on role would suit someone with the confidence and experience to have the day-to-day carriage of their own file load. Defendant experience will be highly regarded, but what matters most is the quality of your experience, your enthusiasm and your willingness to learn.

In addition to solid experience, we value confidence, exceptional communication and drafting skills, and strong academics.

  • 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.
