If you’re a property lawyer who wants more than just turning documents… keep reading. We are working with a well-established, full serviced Melbourne law firm with a seriously respected property practice — trusted by developers, investors and commercial clients to handle high-value, end-to-end property matters. This is your chance to step into a role where you’re not just doing the work — you’re owning it.

The work is broad, commercial, and interesting. This includes acquisitions, disposals, leasing, developments and complex advisory work — with real client exposure from day one.

The opportunity includes:

  • Be front-facing with clients
  • Take real ownership of matters — not just execution

  • Work alongside senior specialists who are known in the market for what they do

Why this role stands out:

  • Breadth of work (not siloed)
  • Autonomy and trust
  • A team that values commercial thinking over box-ticking
  • Clear runway to step up — whether that’s Senior Associate or Special Counsel or Partner

About you:

  • 5+ PQE through to Partner
  • Strong grounding in property (development, leasing, transactions)
  • Commercial, confident and client-ready
  • Keen to be more than just a doer — you want to be known for what you do

If you’re ready to step into a role with visibility, credibility and momentum, let’s talk.
