Aspiring Partners

The opportunities: We primarily focus on assisting new and established Partners, and we are also interested in speaking with aspiring Partners, particularly those looking to make Partner within the next year or two. From time to time, we place senior lawyers at the Special Counsel level directly into Partner level roles.
Key requirements: We are particularly keen to speak with experienced Melbourne-based Special Counsel with strong Partner-level aspirations, ideally bringing in some of their own work. A number of the Special Counsel lawyers we speak to aren't excited at the prospect of making Partner where they are, for various reasons. Thus, it's important to have a strong understanding of the market and possible options, potentially either with a lateral move directly to Partner or into another Special Counsel role with a clear path to making Partner within a reasonable timeframe.
Our key practice areas of interest include: PropertyEmploymentCorporate / CommercialBanking & FinanceFinancial ServicesSuccessionConstruction / ProjectsTech / Cybersecurity / PrivacyPlanning & EnvironmentInsolvencyFamilyWho these opportunities are likely to appeal to: We work with a selection of the leading firms operating in Australia, and aspiring Partners seeking a better option for their path to partnership are likely to find a number of our client firms of interest.
