Join to apply for the Associate/Senior Associate - Construction role at Baker McKenzie
Our lawyers work on high-profile transactions for major clients in the construction and energy sector. Our lawyers deliver seamless client service ranging from entire project management, specialised advisory work and dispute resolution.
About the team
Our market-leading Construction Practice is rapidly growing in response to increased client demand.
We continue to see strong investment in major infrastructure and energy projects and demand for advice across all stages of development and through delivery.
With a local presence in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, our team of three Partners is led by Emanuel Confos, a renowned construction and projects lawyer with a long career in front and back-end construction law.
Our team brings deep industry expertise across energy and renewables, health, transportation, power, water, public infrastructure, property, and commercial developments and our team is increasingly called upon to support new investment in, what is often, highly complex projects.
We act for diverse clients including property developers, governments, contractors, engineering and architectural consultants.
Our team prides itself on a collaborative and innovative approach, supported by a national resourcing model that enables our lawyers to gain deeper industry experience at an earlier stage of career than perhaps otherwise would of occurred, and service our clients with local expertise, across international borders.
