A major global law firm is seeking to appoint an experienced TMT Senior Associate to join its highly cohesive and well‑established team in Melbourne.
This is a newly created 2026 role and a rare opportunity to step into the most senior non‑Partner position within the group.
The team advises a strong mix of domestic and international clients across complex TMT, privacy, and technology‑driven matters.
The partners, senior and junior lawyers all moved together to establish this practice at the firm, and the transition has been exceptionally well managed — resulting in a stable, embedded client base and a genuinely collaborative culture.
This will be the first time the team has sought to recruit laterally.
- What this role offers
- A senior position within a respected and growing international TMT practice
- High‑quality work across privacy, technology, digital transformation, and regulatory matters
- A cohesive team with excellent partner support
- A global and fully integrated platform with a strong reputation in TMT and privacy
- Clear and credible partnership prospects within an unblocked pathway
- Who we’re looking for
- A senior Senior Associate with broad TMT experience
- Someone who enjoys working closely with partners and supporting junior lawyers
- Experienced lawyers returning from abroad and those considering a move from a senior in‑house position as well as NZ qualified candidates are all very much of interest.
