If you're a commercial property lawyer on the Gold Coast who enjoys the work but is looking for a firm where you can genuinely develop your career, this is a great career move.
We're working with a highly regarded Gold Coast boutique firm with an established property and commercial practice, an excellent client base and a genuinely lovely group of (ex top tier) Partners and senior lawyers.
The firm is growing and looking to appoint a commercial property lawyer with approximately 3–7 years' PAE who can take ownership of property transactions and commercial leasing matters, while continuing to develop alongside experienced practitioners.
The work
There is a substantial volume of commercial and retail leasing work, acting for both landlords and tenants, alongside a broader mix of commercial property matters, including:
- Drafting, reviewing and negotiating commercial and retail leases, agreements for lease, assignments, variations and related documentation.
- Commercial property acquisitions and disposals, including contracts, due diligence and settlements.
- Advising clients on property transactions, leasing arrangements and related commercial issues.
- Exposure to more complex property transactions and property development work as your experience grows.
You'll have direct client contact and genuine ownership of your matters, with excellent senior support when you need it.
Why consider this firm?
This is a firm where the people really are a major part of the attraction.
The Partners are approachable, supportive and genuinely invested in developing their lawyers.
There's a collaborative, down-to-earth culture, high-quality clients and the opportunity to become an important part of a growing practice.
You'll have autonomy to run your own matters, while working closely with experienced property and commercial lawyers who will help you continue developing.
Importantly, your career doesn't have to remain confined to property transactions and leasing.
As you develop, there is potential to broaden your experience into property development, more complex transactions and, longer term, commercial and corporate work.
About you
You'll ideally bring
- 3–7 years' PAE in property law, with strong commercial property and leasing experience.
- Experience managing commercial property transactions and drafting and negotiating commercial and retail leases.
- Good drafting, negotiation and client relationship skills, with a practical, commercially focused approach.
- The confidence to take ownership of matters, balanced with a collaborative working style.
- A genuine interest in continuing to develop your technical skills and broader commercial experience.
