This is an excellent opportunity for an Associate or Senior Associate to join a growing Employment & Safety team in Brisbane, with exposure across the full spectrum of employment law, workplace health and safety, and industrial relations. The practice is expanding due to growth, not backfill — making this a career-defining moment to step into a team that’s building momentum.
You’ll work across a balanced mix of advisory and disputes, including workplace investigations, regulatory compliance, enterprise bargaining, contracts, and appearances before the Fair Work Commission, tribunals, and WHS regulators. The practice offers genuine variety in matters and clients, with the added benefit of a global platform.
At Associate level, you’ll focus on supporting senior lawyers in disputes, drafting legal documents, legislative and case analysis, and contributing to client-facing projects. For Senior Associates, the role broadens to managing complex client relationships, negotiating, supervising juniors, and playing a leadership role in the ongoing growth of the practice.
The Partner leading the team is recognised for pragmatic and commercial expertise, with a reputation for being approachable and genuinely invested in mentoring lawyers at all levels. The structure is well balanced, with senior lawyers providing plenty of guidance and opportunities for development, while also allowing space for you to grow into your own career path.
This firm puts people at the centre of everything it does. The culture encourages authenticity, inclusion, and flexibility, with a hybrid working policy that gives you trust and autonomy in managing your time. You’ll also enjoy practical benefits such as volunteer leave, birthday leave, and strong wellbeing initiatives — but just as importantly, the team recognises the need for balance and will back you in managing both work and life commitments.
For lawyers who want both career acceleration and lifestyle flexibility, this is an ideal time to join a firm in growth mode with the resources of a global platform behind you.
