Collaborative, low-ego real estate team doing high-quality, complex deals with leading clients in a growing top-tier platform.
* Close and embedded client relationships
* A rare growth-phase opportunity in a top-tier platform
* A genuinely down-to-earth, low-ego team
A leading global law firm is seeking a Solicitor or Senior Associate (around 3+ years' PAE however there is some flexibility on level) to join its high-performing Brisbane Real Estate team as part of continued growth in its core property practice.
The Team & Culture
This is a genuinely collaborative, low-ego team with a strong sense of cohesion and shared purpose. The group is described internally as "no fuss" in its approach — commercially sharp, calm under pressure, and focused on doing high-quality work without unnecessary noise.
The Partners are approachable, down-to-earth, and deeply trusted by clients, with a strong focus on building long-term relationships and delivering practical, commercially grounded advice. There is a real emphasis on working closely with clients and being embedded in their decision-making, not just advising from the sidelines.
The broader team is a mix of experienced senior lawyers, technically strong solicitors, and high‐calibre graduates, creating an environment where people are supported, stretched appropriately, and given real exposure to meaningful work early.
It is a social and connected group, but not overly hierarchical or formal — people tend to work closely together across matters, with strong mentoring and genuine accessibility to senior lawyers and Partners.
The Work
The practice is growing organically due to sustained client demand across core commercial real estate work (rather than a single one‐off workstream). The work is broad, high‐quality, and varied, including:
* Acquisitions and disposals of single assets and large portfolios
* Development and urban regeneration projects
* Commercial, industrial, retail, build‐to‐rent, and hospitality assets
* Social and affordable housing
* Infrastructure‐adjacent and renewables‐related property matters
The team acts for major domestic and international developers, institutional investors, government agencies, and funds.
The ideal candidate will have:
* Around 3+ years' post‐admission experience in transactional real estate
* Experience gained in a top‐tier, mid‐tier, national or strong boutique firm
* A proactive and commercially minded approach
* Strong technical ability and attention to detail
* A genuine interest in being part of a collaborative, high‐performing team
* Admission in Australia or New Zealand
The team is open-minded on background and is particularly interested in lawyers from mid‐market or smaller specialist practices looking to step into a larger platform and more complex work. Interstate and New Zealand candidates seeking a move to Brisbane are also welcome.
This is an opportunity to join a growing, highly regarded real estate practice that combines top‐tier quality work with a grounded, supportive team culture. The environment suits someone who wants strong mentorship, meaningful client exposure, and the chance to be part of a team that genuinely enjoys working together while delivering at a high level.
