Tired of long commutes? Miss the flexibility of working from home?

We are on the hunt for an exceptional Corporate M&A Senior Associate to join a National Firm in a unique 100% remote role!

This opportunity is a rare gem in the legal industry, especially within a large firm, offering you the flexibility to work from anywhere.

As a Senior Associate in this corporate team you will:
  • Be part of a talented group of professionals, engaging in high-profile deals and providing strategic insights for a diverse range of clients.
  • Work across significant transactions for both national and international companies
  • Provide advice on ECM transactions, including public offerings, demergers, and secondary raisings.
  • Advise on M&A and takeover activities, including due diligence, negotiations, and share sales.
  • Assist public listed companies with General Meetings and compliance with ASX and ASIC regulations.
You will have the opportunity to work closely with experienced partners while receiving support from more junior lawyers within the team.

Additionally, you will play a key role in nurturing and developing more junior lawyers, contributing to the firm's commitment to creating exceptional outcomes for both clients and employees.

We are looking for someone who:

Has a minimum of 6 years of PAE with significant Australian experience in M&A, ECM and Corporate advisory matters.  Ideally you will come from another mid or top-tier national firm. A thorough understanding of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules is also essential.

The benefits you will have are:
  • Option to work 100% remote or come into the CBD offices when you like.
  • This firm does not value long hours and has one of the lowest and most achievable billable targets in the market.
  • Enjoy a competitive salary and a bonus structure that rewards productivity, not just your presence in the office.
  • This firm has invested heavily in insuring all staff have a clear pathway for their personal career progression which has lead to great stability, a positive culture and high staff retention.
