    Description
    Associate: Corporate M&A (Energy & Resources)

    Firm Summary

    White & Case is an elite global law firm serving leading companies, financial institutions and governments worldwide. Our long history as an international firm means we are perfectly placed to help our clients resolve their most complex legal challenges wherever they may be.

    With lawyers operating from more than 40 locations, working in virtually every country of the world, we have invested heavily in building a high-quality full-service practice competing at the top of the market. We are distinguished by our on-the-ground presence in the world's key financial markets and our strengths in handling complex cross-border work.

    It's not just about our global network of offices; it's the global interconnectedness of the Firm that our people, and our clients, value most. We work well together across geographic and practice boundaries. It's one of the reasons we attract and retain cross-border work, and why we attract a diverse group of people.

    Our lawyers are globally minded, enterprising, collaborative and committed to excellence. Diversity is a core value of our Firm and it has been recognized with numerous awards and top rankings around the world. Our people represent 110 nationalities and speak 87 languages.

    Our Opportunity

    We are currently looking a Senior Associate to join the Corporate M&A (Energy & Resources) practice in Melbourne.

    Since our arrival in Australia in 2016 our Australian practice has grown to 34+ partners and 80+ lawyers across Sydney and Melbourne. Our teams work with clients in every state of Australia, across the Asia-Pacific region and around the globe on all aspects of the energy, infrastructure, power (including renewable energy) mining & metals sectors, and on high-profile public market and private equity M&A transactions.

    From the moment you join, you will be interacting with multidisciplinary teams from across our international offices and practice groups, from Project Finance to Private Equity. As well as learning from leading practitioners within our own group, you will therefore also be ideally placed to integrate yourself within the firm's wider global network.

    We foster a collegial working environment where partners are friendly and accessible, and colleagues always supportive and open to questions. Your professional development will also be enhanced by regular interaction with colleagues across the firm's global network and the diversity of work will see you expand your knowledge beyond Australian borders.
