Commercial Lawyer empire group•Melbourne, VIC, AU
A boutique commercial practice in Southbank (founded and led by two brilliant, deeply experienced female principals) is growing - and we are looking for a lawyer who wants to do meaningful, high‐quality work in an environment built for balance, autonomy and actual enjoyment.
This is the kind of role working parents dream about: flexibility that's real, hybrid arrangements that are normal, and leaders who understand that great lawyers don't need to be chained to a desk to deliver exceptional outcomes.
About the Practice
This is a modern commercial firm that does things differently - transparent, human, and genuinely client‐centered. The founders are experts in their fields, widely respected, and genuinely lovely people.
They've built a practice known for:
high‐end commercial and transactional work
niche expertise in pharmacy, health, medical, dental and broader business advisory
practical, strategic guidance for business owners from start‐up to sale
a culture that values flexibility, trust and autonomy
You'll be working alongside principals who are not only exceptional lawyers,



but also exceptional humans - thoughtful, grounded, and invested in mentoring and supporting their team.
The Work
You'll enjoy a broad mix of commercial matters, including:
business sales and purchases
commercial agreements
leasing
structuring
compliance
trademark and IP matters
advisory work across health, pharmacy, medical, dental, property, franchising and professional services
There is plenty of quality work and you will be trusted with responsibility while still having support whenever you need it.
This role is especially ideal for working parents or anyone who wants to do great work without sacrificing their life, health or sanity.
If you are looking for a role that gives you great work, great people and excellent balance, this is one worth exploring.
