Legal Counsel | Global Healthcare Organisation | Broad Commercial Role | Sydney Hybrid
Join the legal team of a global healthcare organisation making a genuine difference
This is an exciting prospect for a lawyer with approximately 3–6 years' PQE to join the Australian legal team of a global healthcare organisation operating across multiple international jurisdictions.
Supporting a business that delivers critical healthcare services to patients around the world, you'll advise on a broad mix of commercial, corporate and regulatory matters while working closely with experienced lawyers and senior business stakeholders.
If you're looking to move in-house into a role offering genuine breadth, international exposure and excellent mentorship, this is a fantastic opportunity.
Why is this a great role?
You'll become part of a collaborative legal team supporting a global healthcare business with operations across numerous jurisdictions. The legal function plays a key role in enabling the organisation's commercial objectives, partnering with stakeholders across procurement, operations, finance and the wider business.
You'll enjoy exposure to a broad range of work including:
Commercial contracts and procurement agreements
Strategic supplier negotiations
Healthcare regulatory advice
Marketing and consumer law matters
Corporate governance
M&A; and business growth initiatives
Development of precedents, templates and legal process improvements
Management of external legal advisers
The breadth of work means you'll develop quickly as a commercial lawyer while gaining valuable insight into how a sophisticated international business operates.
How will this role develop your career?




You'll work closely with highly experienced senior lawyers who are committed to developing junior members of the team.
For lawyers currently in private practice, this is an outstanding pathway into an international in-house legal career. You'll gain direct exposure to commercial decision-making, senior stakeholders and strategic business initiatives that are difficult to access in private practice.
As the organisation continues to grow, there will also be opportunities to broaden your responsibilities and continue developing within the legal function.
Why do lawyers enjoy working here?
This is a collaborative, supportive and high-performing legal team where mentoring and knowledge sharing are genuinely valued.
Lawyers enjoy working here because they are trusted advisers to the business, receive exposure to high-quality commercial work and benefit from the scale and complexity that comes with supporting a global organisation.
The business also offers:
Hybrid and flexible working arrangements
High-quality commercial and strategic legal work
Supportive leadership and mentoring
What type of person will be successful?
You'll ideally have:
3–6 years' PQE
Corporate and commercial experience from a reputable law firm and/or in-house legal team
Strong drafting and negotiation skills
Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
A pragmatic, commercially minded approach to legal advice
Experience in healthcare, life sciences or medical devices will be highly regarded but is not essential
If this opportunity isn't quite right, we'd still love to hear from you. We're currently working on a range of in-house legal opportunities across healthcare, life sciences, FMCG, consumer products and technology.
