Join a Dynamic Construction & Infrastructure Team in Brisbane!
Are you a talented construction lawyer looking to elevate your career with a vibrant, fast-growing practice? My client is seeking a driven and ambitious lawyer with 2-5+ years of PAE to join a leading Construction & Infrastructure team in Brisbane. This is your chance to work on high-profile projects, collaborate with industry experts, and make a real impact in a supportive, merit-based environment.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
Diverse and Exciting Work: Dive into a mix of front-end and back-end construction matters, from drafting contracts to navigating complex disputes, adjudications, and arbitrations. Work on landmark infrastructure projects that shape Australia’s future.
Career Growth Without Limits: Thrive in a true meritocracy where your contributions drive your progression. With structured career planning and hands-on mentoring, you’ll have a clear path to accelerate your career.
Collaborative Culture: Join a tight-knit team of skilled lawyers who value collaboration, innovation, and a passion for construction law. Benefit from direct partner engagement and a supportive environment that fosters your professional development.
Work-Life Balance: Enjoy flexible work arrangements designed to suit your lifestyle, alongside generous leave policies, including purchased and performance-based leave.
Vibrant Firm Culture: Be part of a welcoming, down-to-earth workplace with regular social events, sports clubs, and networking opportunities to connect with colleagues across the firm.
What You’ll Do:
Advise on a wide range of construction and infrastructure projects, from contract drafting to dispute resolution.
Support high-stakes adjudications, arbitrations, and civil proceedings with a strategic and forensic approach.
Draft compelling legal submissions and provide commercially focused advice to a diverse client base.
Engage directly with clients, building trusted relationships and delivering practical, results-driven solutions.
Mentor junior lawyers, sharing your expertise and contributing to the team’s success.
Who You Are
A quality lawyer with 2-5+ years of PAE, ideally with exposure to construction law or commercial litigation.
A sharp thinker with strong drafting skills and a keen eye for detail.
Commercially astute, with the ability to provide strategic advice that aligns with client goals.
A team player with excellent communication skills and a passion for delivering exceptional outcomes.
Eager to grow, learn, and take on new challenges in a fast-paced environment.
Why Apply? This is more than just a job—it’s a chance to build your career with a leading practice that values your talent and ambition. You’ll work on cutting-edge projects, gain unparalleled exposure to complex construction matters, and be part of a firm that invests in your future. With a strong pipeline of work and a collaborative team, this is the perfect opportunity to take your career to the next level.
