Kickstart Your Legal Career with Safewill Legal

As a Junior Lawyer at Safewill Legal, you will be an essential member of our legal team, working closely with senior team members to deliver high-quality legal services for thousands of Australians. You'll gain first-hand experience in the areas of Wills, Estates, and general legal support, with exposure to cutting-edge digital legal processes. This is the ideal role for someone who's passionate about using their legal training to make a meaningful difference and to grow quickly in a supportive startup environment.

Your Impact

Work directly with our Principal and Senior Lawyers to:


* Manage files end-to-end across estate planning, probate, and estate administration.
* Draft & review Wills, Powers of Attorney, Probate Applications, testamentary trusts, and related documents, ensuring accuracy and compliance.
* Provide client-centred advice, explaining complex concepts with clarity and empathy (always under senior supervision).
* Research legislation and emerging best practice in Wills & Estates law, keeping our knowledge base current.
* Improve our digital platform by testing workflows, suggesting automations, and feeding insights to product and engineering teams.
* Collaborate cross-functionally with Customer Support, Marketing, and Operations to deliver seamless, scalable legal services.
* Nurture client relationships through timely communication and meticulous record-keeping.

What You'll Bring
* Recently admitted (or admission-ready) lawyer with 0-2 years' PQE
* Genuine interest in Wills, Estates, or end-of-life law (experience a bonus, passion essential).
* Sharp analytical skills, high attention to detail, and a process-driven mindset.
* Clear, compassionate written and verbal communication.
* Self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced startup, takes ownership, and meets deadlines.
* Bonus: Prior exposure to estate planning/administration or legal-tech environments.

Why Safewill?
* Learn faster than anywhere else: We work across the full spectrum of estate law - from simple Wills to complex testamentary trusts, interstate grants, and estate administration. We regularly deal with challenging, high-volume matters across all major jurisdictions (NSW, VIC, QLD, WA and ACT) giving you exceptional exposure from day one.
* Impact at scale: Safewill, our affiliate platform, is the leading online Will writing platform in Australia. That means your work doesn't just matter - it shapes how estate planning is delivered at scale nationally. This is a rare opportunity to be part of the next frontier of legal services.
* Accelerated learning: Structured mentoring, frequent feedback, and real responsibility in a high-volume setting.
* Supportive, fun culture: Collaborative teammates, regular lunches, Friday drinks, spontaneous celebrations, and all the classic startup perks.
