With over 110 partners, our teams are organised into three strategic pillars so that we can play to our strengths:
* Insurance – including commercial classes such as financial lines, professional indemnity, public & product liability, life insurance and through to statutory classes such as workers compensation and compulsory third party.

About the role
Our Brisbane office has an exciting opportunity for a Health Lawyer, with a minimum of 2 years of post admission experience, to join our growing national health practice.
This is an unusual and exciting role which offers a mix of traditional personal injury practice with work in the regulatory and disciplinary space within the health law sector.
We act for doctors and a range of other health and allied health professionals. Around half of the practice involves claims of negligence or malpractice resulting in personal injury. The balance of the practice involves advising in relation to and acting for these health professionals in prosecutions and disciplinary proceedings, coronial inquests, Commissions of Inquiry and regulatory proceedings.
About you
This role offers considerable variety and the opportunity to develop and expand your skills. Ideally, you will also have:
* Experience in the conduct of professional indemnity matters with a personal injury focus
* Knowledge of the medical regulatory environment and related administrative law
* Strong oral and written communication skills
We also require a team player with excellent organisation skills, commercial acumen and the ability to manage a busy and varied practice. An excellent salary is on offer commensurate with your experience and proven capabilities.
Culture & benefits of working with us
We celebrate diverse thinking and experiences. We encourage our employees to bring their true and authentic self to the workplace. To help support you in achieving this, we offer our employees a wide range of benefits and we are confident that you will find something to love at Morays:
* Flexible working arrangements to help you balance your work and personal commitments.
* 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.
* 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.
