An exceptional opportunity has arisen for a senior lawyer with corporate and operations experience to join the legal leadership team of a leading ASX 100 mining company on an initial 16-month contract. There is strong potential for the contract to be extended for the right lawyer.

This is a broad, hands-on role for a commercially minded lawyer who enjoys partnering with the business and being close to decision-making. The position has a strong focus on corporate, projects and operational legal matters, supporting major strategic initiatives across a growing business.

Working closely with a highly regarded General Counsel & Company Secretary, you will advise on a diverse range of matters including commercial contracting, corporate transactions, debt financing, offtake arrangements, joint ventures, project development and business-critical operational issues.

As the company moves towards a significant FID milestone, this role offers the opportunity to play a key part in shaping and supporting the next phase of growth.

A snapshot of responsibilities - no two days the same:
Lead and support corporate matters, strategic projects and financing initiatives
Negotiate and advise on complex commercial/corporate agreements, including offtake, procurement,



services and project-related contracts
Provide strategic legal support to operational, commercial and executive stakeholders
Manage external counsel
Lead and mentor a direct report while contributing to the broader legal leadership team
Partner with stakeholders across Australia and international operations

About You

We are interested in speaking with senior in-house lawyers with:
12+ years' PAE
Robust corporate, commercial and operational legal experience
A genuine commercial mindset and ability to provide practical, business-focused advice
The confidence to operate autonomously and influence senior stakeholders
Knowledge of ASX listing rules, continuous disclosure obligations and the Corporations Act is welcome but not essential
Company Secretarial exposure is welcome but not essential

This is a rare prospect to join a high-performing legal team within a respected ASX 100 organisation offering an outstanding culture, exciting work and meaningful exposure to significant corporate and operational matters.

For a lawyer seeking a genuine business-partnering role with visibility, variety and strategic impact, prospects like this are few and far between.
