Seeking a remarkable Lawyer to join our Workplace Relations, Employment & Safety (WRES) practice in Brisbane
Join a top tier, marketing leading WRES Practice
Collaborate and contribute to a successful and impactful team
Work with a variety of clients, and work on significant, high profile matters
The Role
We have an exciting opportunity in Brisbane’s market leading Workplace Relations, Employment, and Safety (WRES) legal practice, working with all three workplace partners Shae McCartney, Christy Miller, and Hilary Searing.
We consider ourselves passionate, innovative, creative, practical, and down to earth. We take pride in our team successes, and we want our team to come up with new ways to deliver the best service to our clients. Our clients' businesses are our business, and we want our lawyers to be curious, analytical to challenge the norm and to look for solutions not just give advice.
Our Brisbane WRES team advises on all aspects of workplace relations including industrial relations, employment, occupational health and safety and anti-discrimination. This unique opportunity gives the right candidate the chance to grow their career by working across varied and interesting matters – from industrial strategy and disputes, project management and support, compliance and regulatory matters, restructuring, underpayments and litigation across most Courts and Tribunals.
Skills & Experience
To be successful in this role, the following attributes will be required:
Proven experience working on a range of employment and industrial relations matters (work health and safety experience desirable but not essential)
Ability to draft clear, concise, correct and commercial advice and documents
A strong sense of purpose, ambition and a proactive approach to your work
Strong people skills; the ability to communicate and build a rapport with our clients
Effective written and verbal communication skills and an ability to communicate with impact to both internal contacts and external clients
A high degree of initiative, dedication and organisational ability with a strong client and commercial focus
A proactive attitude towards personal development to expand your skills and knowledge to meet client needs
In addition to this, we're looking for a driven, self-starter; someone who is able to work autonomously and is focused on attention to detail and providing an outstanding service to their clients.
The WRES team
With some of Australia's leading workplace lawyers we are the go-to team for large organisations with challenging workplace needs. We work with our clients across the full spectrum of the employment relationship; from recruitment through to management, and termination. Our work spans all facets of employment law, industrial relations, discrimination, work health and safety, executive remuneration and transactional support.
Our clients include many international and ASX 200 listed companies, leading universities, government and private sector organisations. For further information, please visit our Workplace Relations, Employment and Safety showcase page on LinkedIn.
