- Genuine flexibility in how and where you work, full-time or part-time;
- Sophisticated commercial work without big-firm hierarchy;
- Direct relationships with an established portfolio of quality clients;
- A team-oriented team of experienced lawyers and consultants;
- An incentive program with additional earning potential; and
- Scope to develop your own client relationships, if that interests you.

The Firm

Our client is a boutique practice known for providing clear, practical advice across the full range of commercial law matters. With an established sophisticated client base across FMCG, agriculture, R&D;, manufacturing, technology and creative industries. What sets them apart is how closely they work with their clients – taking the time to understand each business and deliver advice that is direct, commercial and genuinely useful.

We're now looking for a like-minded senior lawyer to join them and share in that approach.

The Role

Work directly with the firm's partners and clients, managing a broad range of commercial matters with genuine autonomy.

Your day-to-day work will include:

- Drafting, reviewing and negotiating commercial contracts;
- Advising on contractual, commercial and operational issues;
- Advising on consumer law, marketing and advertising;
- Preparing consultancy agreements, deeds of release and related documentation;
- Advising on governance,



directors' duties and corporate matters;
- Supporting clients with commercial disputes, contract interpretation and risk management;
- Advising on intellectual property, particularly R&D; arrangements and licensing;
- Guiding clients on privacy and regulatory compliance; and
- Building templates, precedents and practical tools for clients.

About You

You'll have 8+ years' PAE and be confident managing sophisticated commercial matters and client relationships independently.

Ideally, you'll bring:

- Strong contract drafting and negotiation skills;
- Excellent technical ability and attention to detail;
- A practical, commercially focused approach to advice;
- Confidence dealing directly with senior stakeholders; and
- Sound judgement in identifying and managing commercial risk.

Experience in FMCG, food and beverage, agriculture or ag-tech is highly regarded.

You don't need to bring a client base. But if you'd like to keep developing your own practice, the firm is open to discussing a broader remuneration structure.
