    Senior Legal Counsel – Construction - Brisbane, Australia - Francis James Executive Recruitment

    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    The Opportunity

    An exciting new role within the legal team has arisen due to growth as part of this major national construction company. Working with a well established team, you will enjoy working with your peers as part of a fast paced and dynamic environment.

    This company has continued to go from strength to strength, boasting an impressive client base including federal government agencies and blue-chips. You will enjoy first class work, predominantly focussed on front-end matters. You will work across a varied and interesting range of construction and related matters including resolving construction disputes, advising on complex contracts and drafting a variety of legal documents.

    About You

    To be considered for this opportunity, you will have a minimum of 6 years post admission experience and candidates up to the Special Counsel level will also be considered. You may have a mix of both front-end or back-end construction experience, gained either in a mid-tier or top-tier law firm, with a desire to focus on front-end matters. Relevant experience in major construction projects and exceptional attention to detail is essential.

    You will have the confidence and ability to deal with both internal and external stakeholders. You will have strong attention to detail and pride yourself in your drafting abilities.

    You may be looking to make your first move in-house, having gained solid experience as part of a premier construction team in private practice. Candidates with relevant in-house experience will also be highly desirable. You will be down-to-earth in your approach and be a strong team player.

    Culture and Benefits

    It is rare that genuine flexibility and work/life balance is factual and this company is able to offer a working schedule that will suit your situation, should you require flexible hours or to work from home.

    Salary will be commensurate with experience and there will be a compelling salary for the right candidate in addition to an annual bonus. A free car space on site is also available.

    The culture is unique – it is a truly family friendly and relaxed, yet professional working environment.
