· Run your own matters with full trust – no micromanagement.

· Make a real difference in complex, high-value family law cases.

· Join a team that values your voice, expertise, and leadership.

At this stage of your legal career, you’re not simply searching for another role – you’re seeking purpose, the ability to lead, and the trust to make a meaningful impact. This opportunity, with a forward-thinking boutique family law firm offers exactly that. It’s a role built on trust and respect, where your judgment is valued, your independence is supported, and your professional legacy can continue to grow.

You’ll be managing a wide range of family law matters from complex property settlements to delicate parenting arrangements – with full ownership and autonomy. You won’t be micromanaged. Instead, you’ll be empowered to make decisions that reflect your experience and insight. The firm believes that capable lawyers thrive when they’re trusted, not controlled. And with a team of highly skilled support staff behind you, you’ll be free to focus on what matters most: delivering outstanding legal outcomes and building genuine trust with your clients.

Flexibility is embedded into the culture. We are looking for someone based in Sydney that will work remotely, with the option to use a serviced city office if needed. This remote-first approach is designed to support the different ways high-performing professionals work best –without sacrificing collaboration or connection.

This is also a workplace that supports your long-term career ambitions. Whether you’re pursuing specialist accreditation or interested in future partnership, the path is real and the leadership is invested in your growth. You’ll have the opportunity to grow a team which will see you mentoring junior staff and contributing meaningfully to the collective knowledge and performance of the group.

You’ll find yourself among a high-performing, currently all-female team who believe in open communication, mutual support, and a culture where ideas are shared freely.

To be considered, you’ll need a minimum of nine years PAE in family law. You’ll bring a strong ethical foundation, a results-driven mindset, and a natural ability to guide clients through complex and emotionally charged situations with clarity and empathy. Above all, you’ll be someone who wants to take ownership of their work and be part of a team that respects your time, your talent, and your values.

If this sounds like the kind of environment where you would thrive, I’d welcome a confidential conversation. With over 20 years of experience in legal recruitment, I understand how important it is to get these decisions right – for your career, and for your life.
