    • Supporting and negotiating contracts and transactions
    • Identifying and assisting the business to appropriately mitigate legal and strategic risks
    • Briefing external legal advisors (as required) and managing engagement and costs
    • Ensuring compliance through actively engaging with stakeholders and maintaining awareness of relevant legislation, laws, regulations, standards, codes and AusNet policies and procedures

    You don't need to check every box; however, we are looking for a good combination of:

    • 4 - 5+ years PQE with a top tier law firm or in house environment with solid experience delivering demonstrable outputs across a range of network related projects or contracts
    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate to a broad range of internal clients
    • Ability to work at pace
    • A team player with a highly adaptable and collaborative working style
    • License requirements: Admitted to practice as a Lawyer in Victoria, Australia

    A real place to belong

    We celebrate unique voices, refreshing perspectives and diversity in our team. Engage and connect through our social club, family day, wide range of events or by joining one of our Employee Network Groups.

    We believe in more than just competitive pay. Here's what sets us apart:

    • Flexibility: whether this is hybrid work, flexible hours, or part time arrangements, we'll work with you to help balance work and life.
    • Leave: more than typical personal leave and a generous 14 weeks of paid parental leave, with no minimum service.
    • Community giving: a paid day to volunteer with our social impact partner, Foodbank, or for a cause that matters to you.
    • Perks: we offer all the other perks you've come to expect like purchased leave, income protection insurance, novated leasing, corporate discounts, private health cover discounts and more.

    As an industry in transformation, we're excited by the possibilities ahead.

    So, if you're passionate about our purpose and committed to making real progress, bring your energy and join AusNet. Together, we can shape a new way forward.
