Our corporate team is hiring!

20 MAR 2024 Careers
The role

As a result of recent strong deal flow, we are searching for a senior lawyer with corporate transactional experience to work alongside our corporate deal team. While predominately focussed on M&A, the role will also provide the right candidate with exposure to a wide range of corporate law matters, such as capital-raising, joint ventures, corporate governance and FIRB.

Requirements

We are looking for an associate level or above lawyer with a minimum of four years post-admission experience in M&A or other corporate transactional law areas. Specifically, we are looking for a corporate lawyer possessing the following attributes:

  • commercial nous
  • contract drafting skills
  • experience in negotiation
  • independent thinker
  • a positive and hard-working nature.

You will also have a willingness to work as part of a small team of experienced lawyers who enjoy challenging the status quo in terms of how M&A law is practised.

For this role, we will only be considering applications from those who are admitted to practice law in Australia.

If you have this kind of background and are looking to take the next step in your legal career, we’d be very keen to hear from you.

Why us?

We are a true boutique corporate focussed law firm. Working as part of a small, close knit and supportive team, you will have direct exposure to interesting and quality work for a great portfolio of clients that energise us and are enjoyable to work with.

For the right candidate, this role represents a great opportunity to develop their own client following and progress their career to the next level.

Acknowledging that a career in corporate law can at times be demanding, in addition to a competitive remuneration package, we offer all our staff reasonable additional annual leave above the statutory four weeks to pursue interests outside of law. We also offer a flexible working environment where we come together in the office for learning and collaboration, not mere presentism.

Applications

If you are interested in joining the Walter Baden team, we’d love to hear from you. Please submit your application by emailing your CV and short cover letter to careers@walterbaden.law.

At this stage, we will not be accepting applications received via recruitment agencies for this role.
