ABOUT BROOKLYN BENNETT
Brooklyn Bennett is a modern Australian law firm delivering commercially focused legal solutions to businesses, government agencies and leading organisations across Australia and internationally.
Their lawyers advise clients across commercial litigation, commercial law, employment, contract law, mergers and acquisitions, immigration, family law and governance.

We don't simply respond to legal problems.
We help shape industries.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Reporting directly to the Partners,



you'll take ownership of sophisticated commercial litigation matters while playing an important role in the continued growth of the firm.
You'll lead litigation strategy, manage complex disputes from commencement through to resolution and mentor a growing team of lawyers.
You'll also have the opportunity to expand your own client network, contribute to business development and establish yourself as a trusted adviser to sophisticated commercial clients.
This role is designed for lawyers who aspire to Partnership—not simply another Senior Associate title.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
Lead complex commercial litigation and dispute resolution matters
Develop litigation strategies that deliver commercially successful outcomes
Review and oversee litigation prepared by other lawyers within the team
Advise clients across commercial law, contract law, employment, mergers and acquisitions, governance and related matters
Draft pleadings, submissions, affidavits, commercial agreements and strategic legal advice
Represent clients in court proceedings, mediations, negotiations and settlement conferences
Build trusted relationships with sophisticated commercial clients
Mentor and develop a team of three lawyers




Identify opportunities to expand existing client relationships and generate new business
Collaborate directly with the firm's Partners on high-profile legal matters
Help strengthen internal systems, precedents and legal best practice
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
We're seeking someone who combines legal excellence with commercial confidence.
You'll thrive if you:
Enjoy solving complex commercial problems
Think strategically rather than reactively
Build solid relationships naturally
Influence clients with confidence and credibility
Take ownership of outcomes
Lead by example
Enjoy mentoring emerging lawyers
See opportunities where others see obstacles
Have the ambition to build a practice—not simply manage files
5+ years Post Admission Experience
Strong Australian private practice experience in commercial litigation and dispute resolution
Proven experience managing litigation matters independently
Excellent drafting, advocacy and negotiation skills
Strong commercial judgement and strategic thinking
Experience managing sophisticated client relationships
Confidence appearing in court, mediations and negotiations
Please note that this role is best suited to lawyers with private practice commercial litigation experience.
Experience gained exclusively in in-house legal teams is unlikely to provide the breadth of litigation strategy and advocacy required for this position.
If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
