Work with us
Great things in business are never done by one person, they're done by a team.
Our initiatives
Cadet lawyers
We regularly invite applications from students enrolled, or who have been offered enrolment, in an Australian university law degree course for positions as cadet lawyers.
These are rare opportunities for students with considered personal objectives keen to acquire practical legal skills by working in a modern law firm.
Applications must be made via our cadetship page. We welcome applications at any time. We will hold your application on file until our next intake.
Graduate executive program
We have employed graduates in law, marketing, accounting, business administration, web development and applications development.
You will have the potential to be a talented business professional with commitment and enthusiasm.
Depending on the position, you will work in one or more multi-disciplinary teams which will include business owners, lawyers, legal executives and our web site and software application developers.
As a general rule, to be eligible for the program you must have a bachelor degree from an Australian university, preferably in Law, Arts, Economics, Commerce, Business or Computer Science.7 Good reasons
Why you should work with us
We believe it’s essential for our professionals of all ages to pursue an interest (or two) that offers a release from the stresses of everyday life. You won’t find us working until the early hours of the morning. Music and the arts in general are popular here, but so is paintball, cooking, triathlon, yoga, footy (tipping), computing …
We understand you have commitments outside of work, so we work with our people to come up with flexible working arrangements. Many of our staff work part-time or work from home to allow them to maintain other commitments, such as studying or taking care of children.
We empower all team members to take charge and be leaders within their areas of responsibility. We encourage our staff to be innovative and constantly challenge them to look for better ways of doing things.
We’re not about to take ourselves too seriously. There’s an enjoyment in what we do and we approach it with integrity, diligence and a sense of humour.
We encourage our lawyers to make a contribution to the wider legal profession and will facilitate your involvement in Law Society committees or groups.
What really motivates people to love their jobs is achievement, recognition and the work itself. The question we ask of each team member is “what sort of career do you aspire to?” Then we set goals with you to help you achieve it.
We use teamwork for almost every client file and for management and marketing projects. Our offices are open-plan and we encourage collaboration between team members at all levels.
