Looking to make the move in-house this financial year? This is a rare opportunity for defendant insurance lawyers to join a growing organisation with a reputation for excellence in workers' compensation and personal injury.

This organisation is well-known for offering challenging and engaging work, ongoing training & development with the opportunity to learn from the best, a genuine work-life balance and a truly unique and positive working environment.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Highly competitive salary (circa $200,000 + benefits)
  • Hybrid flexibility – 50% work from home
  • Study support – financial assistance & study leave
  • Brisbane CBD location
  • Tailored career development and mentorship
  • Health & wellbeing programs to support your lifestyle

What is the role:

Providing strategic legal advice and risk management in the area of workers' compensation. This role will play a key part in shaping legal frameworks, managing litigation strategies, and ensuring high-quality legal outcomes for the business. You will work closely with internal and external stakeholders to deliver effective legal solutions while driving continuous improvement in legal processes.

The varied work mix will include:

  • Provide high-quality, timely legal advice to support business decisions and minimise legal risk.
  • Oversee high-risk common law claims to mitigate business and legal exposure.
  • Work closely with external legal providers.
  • Deliver legal education programs to internal stakeholders to enhance risk awareness.
  • Research and advise on legislative changes, emerging trends, and legal innovation.
  • Collaborate on strategic projects to support business objectives.

Who is suitable:

  • 5+ Years PAE
  • Admitted as a Lawyer in QLD
  • Experience defending Personal Injuries claims and working on Workers Compensation matters
  • Strong knowledge of statutory and common law claims processes
