The Firm
Our client is a leading national law firm with a strong and robust reputation across all of their commercial practices.
The senior lawyers at the firm have traditionally come from large national or top tier firms. Their commitment to ensuring realistic expectations of staff is reflected by a fresh and dynamic environment coupled by a far less bureaucratic and more vibrant atmosphere.
The Team
With extensive experience in contentious and non-contentious employment and industrial matters, the firm's workplace relations team is highly experienced and is supported by a number of solicitors in the commercial dispute resolution team.
Advice is provided across a wide range of issues including:
-
drafting and reviewing employment contracts including individual flexibility agreements and enterprise agreements under the Fair Work Act 2009
-
implementation and amendment to HR policies
-
drafting and advising on enforceability of restraint of trade clauses
-
litigation in all industrial and discrimination tribunals and superior courts
-
defending unfair dismissal and adverse action claims in Fair Work Australia and in State Industrial Relations Commissions
-
managing and litigating discrimination and harassment claims
-
advising on industrial action and the duty to bargain in good faith
-
issues arising from the use of social networking sites in the workplace.
-
providing training to clients on legislative amendments.
Industry experience includes the retail and service sector, finance and professional services, healthcare, education, construction, engineering and manufacturing.
Clients range from small privately owned businesses to large companies with several thousand employees being a mixture of professional, executive, managerial, trade, administrative staff and contractors.
The Role
As part of the firm's strategic plan, they have identified a rare opportunity for an established senior practitioner to move directly into a partnership role.
The successful candidate must have a proven ability to build strong relationships with clients through their ability to think creatively and to provide high quality outcomes. In order to be successful in this role you will require drive and initiative, and have a desire to play an active role in the strategic direction and future expansion of the firm.
