Planning & Environmental Lawyer (1 - 3 + years) National Firm Brisbane CBD

This is the career move, not the stepping stone.

A long-established national commercial law firm is adding a junior lawyer to its Brisbane Planning & Environment team. It is a large, well-resourced practice with a robust pipeline of work, and you would report directly to a Senior Team member and have access to a Partner who is known for developing junior lawyers into good ones. Mentoring on a daily basis!

What you’ll actually do

You will run your own files from the start, with real court exposure, not a watching brief. The work is diverse and complex, and it changes daily:
Litigation in the Planning & Environment Court
Environmental impact assessments
Planning scheme amendments and approvals
Project approvals under State and Federal legislation
Land acquisition and access
Regulatory compliance, enforcement and disputes

You will work alongside senior lawyers who have time to teach,



and a Partner who takes mentoring seriously.

What you’ll get back
A package above market for your level
A share in the team’s bonuses and benefits. Hard work is noticed here, and rewarded.
Structured mentoring and a clear path to grow
Adaptable working to support a sustainable way of working
Social, financial and health benefits, including discounted gym membership
The backing of a strong national brand

Who this suits
1 to 3 years’ post-admission experience in planning and environment law. More experience will also be considered.
Attention to detail and a genuine care for clients
Resilience, curiosity and the appetite to take ownership early

We know your needs are your own. We would be glad to talk through whether this is the right next move for you, with no obligation.
