Junior Lawyer | Property, Commercial & Disputes | Geelong

Amicus Legal Recruitment

Other  

Date posted: January 24, 2026

Closes: Feb 23, 2026


This is a unique opportunity to join the expanding Geelong office of a long-standing Melbourne-based law firm, offering the depth and quality of work you’d expect from a city practice, combined with the lifestyle benefits of a regional role.

The firm has recently invested in growing its Geelong presence and is now seeking a 2-3 PQE lawyer to join the team in a newly created position.

The Opportunity
This role offers the opportunity to work closely with a highly experienced senior practitioner, gaining exposure to a broad and varied practice while benefiting from strong mentoring and hands-on development across:

  • Complex commercial transactions
  • Property development matters
  • Building and property disputes
  • Advisory work for long-standing and sophisticated clients

This role offers meaningful involvement in matters from day one, with increasing responsibility and direct client interaction as you progress.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Backed by a respected Melbourne firm with strong systems and support
  • City-quality work delivered from a growing Geelong office
  • Hands-on mentoring and real career development
  • Relaxed, collegiate team culture with professional standards
  • One day WFH and genuine flexibility

Must Haves:

  • 2-3 years PAE gained within an Australian private practice law firm
  • Background in property, commercial law and/or disputes (or a mix)
  • Confident, proactive and comfortable dealing directly with clients
  • Keen to take ownership of matters and continue building technical depth

This is an ideal opportunity for a lawyer looking to broaden their practice, gain autonomy, and be part of a firm that combines Melbourne credibility with Geelong lifestyle. Please apply via the link on this page or email our team directly: ****@amicuslegal.com.au
