About LOD

LOD is the leading flexible legal service provider across ten locations: Brisbane, Hong Kong, London, Melbourne, New York, Perth, Singapore, Dubai and Sydney. We are changing the way in which clients buy legal services and provide talented lawyers with a new way of working.

We’ve achieved some of the fastest growth in our sector by creating and leading a new professional service category. That growth continues as we launch new services, responding to the way our lawyers want to work and clients want to engage them. This role offers an opportunity to be part of this story.

Why Join LOD?

People come to us for a whole range of reasons – they might be looking for time for their interests, for work alongside other projects, or just want a change. What they all have in common is a desire for high quality work coupled with a degree of control that traditional models can’t offer, but LOD can.

All of our LODs have worked at top tier firms or as part of major in-house teams. We only accept a small percentage of applications as we choose lawyers who are not only technically excellent, but who can work seamlessly with our client’s teams. This ensures we can offer our lawyers consistently high-quality assignments.

We can offer:

• Varied, challenging, career-enhancing work with market leading brands (from Google to Barclays, and Amex to adidas) as well as exciting growth companies.
• Flexibility and autonomy: you can work anything from full-time on site with a client to a few hours each week from home.
• Training and know-how, as well as support from our dedicated HQ Team.
• A variety of flexible models that include working at the client’s offices or remotely.

The Role

Provide expert advice on employment law matters, including workplace policies, employment agreements, and dispute resolution.

Represent internal stakeholders in litigation, negotiations, and regulatory investigations.

Draft, review, and negotiate employment-related contracts and documents.

Stay abreast of legal developments to ensure compliance and identify emerging risks.

Foster strong client relationships by delivering tailored legal solutions to meet their unique needs.
