We are working with a leading independent Australian corporate law firm to identify a strong disputes lawyer (2 to 4 yrs) with either experience in, or keen interest to practise in, construction law.

The construction team undertakes some of the most complex, significant and high-profile infrastructure, construction, engineering and mining projects and matters in the Asia-Pacific region. The team covers the full range of construction matters including:

You will act for a range of clients including owners, developers, project sponsors, financiers, project managers, consultants, and government agencies at local, state and federal level on a mix of dispute resolution including litigation, arbitration, mediation and expert determination.
