Job description

Own your leasing files at a leading National firm. Fixed term contract, up to $125k & excellent benefits on offer!

• Earn up to $125,000pkg + mentoring, further study support & more benefits
• Fixed term contract
• Run your own files across major leasing deals

Is leasing your specialty? This could be the perfect role for you. Joining a top Real Estate group you'd be part of an award-winning National law firm as a Leasing Paralegal, on a fixed term contract. The team advises both owners and occupiers across industrial, commercial and retail property, from headline leases to more intricate arrangements.

You'll be given genuine independence here, with files of your own and plenty of direct client contact. You'll also have Partners who are known for their "easy to work with" nature and who take a real interest in where your career goes.

The Role

Day to day, you'll be drafting and negotiating lease documents, tracking critical dates and managing correspondence. You'll also work on licences, assignments, variations and renewals, along with any other documents a leasing matter calls for.

Clients and outside parties will deal with you directly, so you'll be the one making sure each matter keeps moving and its records stay accurate. On the larger, more complex transactions, you'll work alongside the Partners and lawyers as part of the wider team.

The Experience

You'll already have expertise as a Leasing Paralegal, ideally in a mid-tier or larger firm, and you'll know your way around commercial leasing from start to finish. You'll also bring:

• An organised, proactive approach to a busy workload
• Confidence dealing with clients & colleagues
• The ability to work on your own or as part of a small team
• Good judgement, a positive outlook & real care for client service

The Benefits

• Subsidised gym membership, a wellbeing program & social and sporting committees
• Further education support, with learning & development at every stage
• Mentoring, sponsorship, coaching & leadership support
• In-house barista & end-of-trip facilities
• A firm recognised nationally for diversity & inclusion
