Job Description
Flexible, hybrid Sydney based role - 2 days in office
New role due to growth
"The tech is exciting, but the people... they're incredible."
Why join LEAP Dev?
Your work matters. Helping lawyers help people sits at the heart of everything we do. We solve real world problems that improve and support local, everyday law firms. So they can do their best work for the people in the communities they serve.
Make an impact. You won’t be another ‘cog in the wheel’ here. We give full trust and autonomy for you to be heard, to work on big & complex projects – and to make a real difference.
Work with a group of authentic, passionate people who love what they do.
Well-funded and global. LEAP is the leading provider of Legal Practice Productivity Solutions across Australia, Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland and New Zealand. We're part of ATI – one of the largest international LegalTech companies.
Flexible and hybrid working. We'd like to find this person in Sydney, but we want you to work in a way that suits you and we're open to flexible arrangements that support you.
Grow your career with us. Our founder Christian Beck has been building legal tech businesses for over 30 years. There are opportunities galore to expand your career based on where your interests lie. We're not afraid to pivot based on market conditions - you will always have the opportunity to stay ahead of the curve and do your best work here.
We value your well-being - enjoy an additional paid wellbeing day every year, free platinum fitness first gym membership and monthly massages in the office. We'll throw in a catered lunch and breakfast every week too. Oh and a professional barista.
