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
