Liaise with property conveyancers and solicitors to support property transactions
Assist in reviewing and improving internal conveyancing processes to create efficiencies
Advise on commercial strategy, corporate structure, and business operations
Oversee compliance with licensing, privacy, consumer law, and other regulatory requirements
Support leaders with legal input into business decisions and strategic initiatives
Identify and manage legal risks across departments
Assist with escalated commercial issues or disputes

Support internal governance, policies, and compliance processes
About You
3+ years practising experience, ideally in a general commercial or in property law/conveyancing
Confident negotiating commercial contracts and advising internal stakeholders
Sound knowledge of corporate, consumer, and privacy law
Strong commercial judgement and ability to balance legal risk with business needs
Experience in a regulated or client-facing environment preferred
Exposure to the property sector or related industries (real estate, financial services, professional services) is a bonus
Experience working with conveyancers or on property transactions will be highly regarded
Why You’ll Love It Here
We’re one of Australia’s fastest-growing companies, helping clients build real wealth through property, and we’re only getting started. We’re a team of driven, down-to-earth people who love what we do and want you to be part of it.
This hybrid role (3 days in our Macquarie Park office, 2 days from home) gives you the best of both worlds. Our office has everything you need; childcare, a gym, a great café, and top-notch end-of-trip facilities. Plus, we’re right by trains, buses, and motorways, with parking available too.
This is your chance to build a meaningful career in property, help real people change their lives, and be part of a team that’s doing work that matters. As Legal Counsel, you’ll be at the centre of a scaling national business, with direct access to decision-makers and a seat at the table when it comes to shaping how we grow.
