Tax Lawyer role advising high net worth clients on structuring, international tax and succession within a leading multidisciplinary Melbourne team.
* High-end private client and international tax work
* Work alongside lawyers and accountants in a unique advisory model
* Melbourne-based, growing and highly regarded practice
Our client is a highly regarded Melbourne-based advisory practice operating at the intersection of law, tax and accounting. With a strong reputation in the private client space, the business advises high net worth individuals, family groups and entrepreneurs on complex structuring, wealth and cross-border matters.
Known for its collaborative and commercially focused approach, the team brings together legal and accounting expertise to deliver holistic, forward-thinking advice.
The Opportunity
An opportunity now exists for an experienced Tax Lawyer to join this highly regarded practice in a senior capacity, either as a Senior Associate, Special Counsel or Contractor.
This role has been intentionally designed for lawyers seeking greater flexibility and autonomy, whether that be a parent returning to practice, a senior practitioner wanting a more balanced and sustainable role, or an experienced tax lawyer looking for contractor or remote-based work.
Working closely with experienced senior practitioners and the broader advisory team, you will be involved in sophisticated tax and structuring matters while enjoying genuine flexibility and direct client engagement.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-quality private client practice without sacrificing autonomy, lifestyle or meaningful work.
The Role
This position will see you working across a broad range of complex domestic and international tax matters, including:
* Australian tax residency advice for individuals, companies and trusts
* International and cross-border tax structuring
* Overseas investments, private equity and foreign business operations
* Cross-border lending arrangements and foreign tax considerations
* Controlled foreign company provisions and international tax exemptions
* Foreign superannuation and retirement structures
* Asset protection and succession structuring for family groups
* Land tax and property ownership advisory matters
You will work as part of a collaborative and technically strong team, advising on sophisticated matters that require both technical excellence and commercial judgement.
The Person We Seek
We’re interested in hearing from experienced Tax Lawyers with a minimum of 7 years’ post‑admission experience, ideally gained within a reputable law firm, advisory practice or accounting environment. Ideally, you will:
* Have strong technical taxation expertise and analytical capability
* Be confident managing matters independently while working collaboratively
* Be commercially minded and solutions‑focused
* Enjoy building trusted client relationships
* Value flexibility, autonomy and a positive team culture
This opportunity would suit a senior lawyer seeking a more flexible and sustainable way of practicing, while continuing to work on high-quality and intellectually stimulating matters.
