This long‐established, award‐winning Canberra law firm is looking for a Wills & Estates Lawyer with 3-5 years' PAE. They want someone who's strong on the technical side but even stronger when it comes to people. Someone who fits into their laid‐back, family‐style culture where hierarchy takes a back seat and personality really matters.
This isn't just another job in another firm. The Partners here are all at a similar stage of life and planning to step back around the same time, which means there's a real, tangible pathway to salary partnership here. No illustrations, no dangling carrots, but an actual opportunity to step up and help shape the next chapter of the firm.
Responsibilities
In this role, you'll work closely with clients to build trust and deliver thoughtful estate planning solutions, drafting both simple and complex documents with precision. You'll collaborate with experienced Senior Associates, manage deadlines and compliance, keep your files in excellent shape, and contribute to the firm's growth through seminars, networking, and client education. You'll need strong drafting skills, attention to detail, excellent communication, initiative, and the ability to juggle competing priorities without losing your cool. Above all, you'll need to be someone who brings a positive, team‐minded energy to the workplace.
Benefits
In return, the firm offers excellent remuneration, additional paid days off between Christmas and New Year, 5‐hour billable targets that make work‐life balance more than just a slogan, and outstanding long‐term progression. Add to that a supportive, inclusive environment with real mentorship and you'll find a firm that values your contribution and invests in your growth.
Growth & Culture
If you're looking for a place to grow, belong, and eventually lead, this might just be the career trail you've been waiting for.
