This is a fantastic opportunity to join a highly regarded Family Law practice with an exceptional team, genuinely supportive leadership and a culture that people love being part of.

At the same time, you’ll be given the opportunity to build your confidence, take on greater autonomy and progress your career as your experience develops. The firm takes progression seriously, with regular reviews and clear conversations around your development and what the next step could look like.

- Parenting matters
- Complex property matters
- Financial agreements and settlements
- Family Law negotiations and advice
- A varied mix of privately funded client work

There is a strong pipeline of work coming through the door, and you’ll work with a diverse range of clients, giving you plenty of variety and the opportunity to continue developing your technical and client management skills.

The firm also takes work-life balance seriously. With a 6-hour daily billable target, no expectation to stay late and a team that generally finishes around 5:30pm, you can build a successful Family Law career without it taking over your life!

There are regular team lunches, dinners and social events, and a genuine focus on creating an environment where people feel valued and enjoy coming to work.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who is:

- Passionate about Family Law and keen to continue developing
- Confident working with clients and managing matters
- Naturally personable, outgoing and cooperative
- Eager to learn from an experienced Principal
- Looking for a team they can genuinely see themselves growing with
