Generalist Solicitor - Community Legal Centre
Broken Hill, NSW | Full-time Fixed Term (12 months ongoing)
Salary: $88,378 - $105,047 + Super + Salary Packaging | Start Date: ASAP
Be the difference. Shape lives. Build your legacy in a place that truly needs your voice.
Our client is seeking an enthusiastic and community-minded Generalist Solicitor to join their highly respected Community Legal Centre based in Broken Hill. This is an exciting and rewarding opportunity for a solicitor who wants to go beyond the courtroom and work at the heart of real social justice change.
Why This Role Stands Out
Make a tangible impact in vulnerable and remote communities
Work face-to-face in a trusted legal centre that values advocacy, human rights and access to justice
Live in a vibrant, culturally rich regional hub Broken Hill is home to stunning desert landscapes, thriving arts, and a tight-knit, inclusive community
Support for relocation: Additional support to help you settle in
Generous conditions: Salary packaging up to $15,834 tax-free
What You'll Do
Provide free legal information, advice and casework to clients across Far West NSW
Act as a duty lawyer at Broken Hill and Wilcannia courts (e.g. family law, tenancy, minor traffic matters, and domestic violence)
Conduct community outreach to Wilcannia, Menindee, Ivanhoe, Tibooburra and White Cliffs (always with team support)
Support legal education and contribute to law reform and advocacy initiatives
Work closely with social services, health professionals, and community workers
Be part of a enthusiastic team committed to community mental health and wellbeing
About You
Eligible for (or currently hold) a NSW Practising Certificate
1-2+ years post-admission experience (generalist background ideal)
Courtroom experience is essential - particularly in family law and DV-related matters
Strong understanding of the social issues facing disadvantaged communities
Self-driven, resilient, and able to work independently in a fast-paced environment
Comfortable managing your own caseload and using legal case management systems
Current driver's licence and willingness to travel for outreach (up to 3 hours from base)
Key Info
Contract: 12 months fixed term - potential for extension
Start Date: ASAP
Interviews: Conducted promptly upon CV submission, we're ready to move!
Workplace: On-site in Broken Hill - no hybrid model due to the face-to-face nature of community work
Why Broken Hill?
Broken Hill isn't just a place to live, it's a place to belong. As Australia's first heritage-listed city, it offers a unique mix of outback charm, rich Indigenous culture, and a thriving arts scene. You'll find everything from iconic film festivals and live music to welcoming pubs, vibrant cafes, and strong local networks. Working in a regional community like this means forming genuine connections, making an immediate impact, and enjoying a lifestyle where your contribution is truly valued.
Forget the long commutes this is where career meets community!
