Legal Counsel | Financial Services | Brisbane

About the Organisation

Our client is a well established and fast growing non bank lender based in Brisbane with an ambitious growth trajectory and an entrepreneurial culture. Operating in the solution based and retail lending space, the business works with complex borrowers across a growing product suite, and its recently launched commercial products have gained strong market traction. Things move quickly here, that is part of the culture and part of the appeal.

This is a lean, high performing legal team where your contribution is visible, your ideas are welcome, and you are trusted to get on with it.

About the Role A Legal Counsel position reporting directly to the GC, working alongside a small, close knit legal team. The role covers real estate transactional work, trust and SMSF advice, commercial agreement drafting, and support for enforcement and regulatory matters as the business grows, including input on an active credit fund licensing process. This is not routine conveyancing, that work is handled externally, this role is about the substantive front end work that underpins the business.

Day to day you will be across:

- Real estate transactional matters,



trust and SMSF advice
- Commercial agreement drafting, review and file management
- Enforcement, distressed borrower and insolvency support alongside the collections team
- Regulatory change and compliance, including the business's credit fund licensing process
- Working closely with the General Counsel and a recently admitted junior lawyer

About You You are an admitted lawyer with solid post admission experience, ideally with exposure to real estate, trust, SMSF, commercial or enforcement work. Beyond the technical skills, cultural fit is everything, available, affable and humble, commercially minded and solutions focused, and comfortable navigating ambiguity in a quick paced, entrepreneurial environment.

If you have come from a private practice or corporate setting and are looking for a place where you can see the impact of your work, this is worth a conversation.

Full time, Brisbane based. Salary is fluid depending on experience. Flexible working arrangements in place.
