Projects with long term economic and community impact
Partner with senior leader and key stakeholders
Broad legal, commercial, and strategic role

We are partnering with a leading infrastructure and sustainability business looking for a commercially minded Legal Counsel to join its high-performing team. You will work at the heart of major projects, advising decision-makers on complex commercial arrangements, procurement strategies, construction and energy projects, and long-term operational partnerships.

The work is significant, but what makes this prospect different is the level of influence. Legal is embedded in the business, involved early, and trusted to help shape outcomes. You will have a genuine seat at the table, working alongside executives, project leaders and commercial teams to navigate challenges, unlock prospects and support strategic growth.

This is an ideal opportunity for a lawyer who enjoys variety, wants to be closer to the action, and is looking to broaden their exposure beyond traditional legal advisory work.

What you will be involved in
Major infrastructure, construction, and energy projects




Strategic procurement and tender processes
Complex commercial contracting and negotiations
Project delivery and operational arrangements
Risk management and business strategy
Governance and compliance initiatives

About You

You will bring 6+ years' PQE from private practice, in-house, or a combination of both, with experience in construction, projects, infrastructure, energy or commercial contracting.

Equally important is your mindset. You're practical, commercially aware and enjoy partnering with stakeholders to find solutions. You ask "how can we make this work?"

Why Apply?
Work on projects with long-term economic and community impact
Partner directly with senior leaders and key decision-makers
Enjoy a broad role that combines legal, commercial and strategic work
Join a cooperative, flexible and highly regarded team
Build a career in sectors shaping Australia's future
