Lawmee is working with a national industry services company that is seeking a lawyer with experience in employment and workplace relations to join a market-leading team on a full-time or part-time basis for approximately 12 months.
About the role:
Working with lawyers in the Perth office and as part of a fully integrated national group, comprising 40+ Partners and lawyers, you will advise tier-one and well-known clients across a diverse range of interesting legal matters. The opportunity will provide access to clients across most industry groups, including mining, energy & resources, manufacturing, construction, ICT, transport and logistics, airlines, not-for-profit, and retail.
Responsibilities:
* Providing advice on employment and workplace issues.
* Advising in relation to discrimination, dismissals and terminations, employment contracts and awards, policies, and performance and conduct issues.
* Assisting with workplace investigations.
* Advising in relation to enterprise bargaining strategy and approval, HR/IR strategy development and change management.
* Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts.
* Assisting with claims, litigation, and disputes in various jurisdictions (including the Fair Work Commission and the WA Industrial Relations Commission).
* Managing internal and external stakeholders at all levels.
This team is renowned for its positive and inclusive culture, with a significantly reduced focus on billable hours (3.4 hours per day). This is a key differentiator and allows them to complete complex quality work for tier-one clients, in a more sustainable and enjoyable way.
We would be delighted to hear from lawyers with 4-15+ years’ PAE and some prior experience in employment and workplace relations law, from either a law firm or in-house legal team.
