Offer description

Why Join Ankura
* You'll have the opportunity to make meaningful contributions to our work on some of Australia's biggest litigation from day one.
* You'll be working directly with our market‐leading experts in an established global consultancy. Our working style is very collaborative, meaning you'll be able to inspire, inform, debate and even challenge our leaders on a daily basis.
* Our Australian Disputes and Economics team is highly innovative, and we use AI, automation and programming as part of how we deliver almost every engagement.
* Learn innovative people and engagement management techniques that mean you genuinely lead a team, not become the person who does all the work.
* Our local leaders have a proven track record of developing interested team members into well‐respected expert witnesses. If you think you might want to be an expert witness one day, there's no better place to do just that.
* Both the team and firm are in an exciting phase of growth in the Australian market, which is ideal for candidates looking to make their mark. The established global firm provides the gravitas, structured learning and career development you'll likely be used to from other professional service firms, but our stage of growth gives you a unique opportunity to shape the way we work and the future of our team.
