We are looking to appoint a Senior Associate to join our national practice, who will contribute to our growth and become a leader in our practice.
You will be joining a high-performing, professional, ambitious and collaborative team led by partners who have practiced in New Zealand, London and Sydney, including Wook Jin Lee, Joy Wang and Keegan Toft.
We have a proven track record of recognising and developing talent, with genuine partnership potential for the right candidates. We support and reward excellence, as demonstrated by our recent promotion of Joy Wang to the partnership within 8 years of practice.
The team has a strong transactional focus, and regularly acts on both inbound and outbound cross-border transactions. This team has handled many of the firm’s most high-profile matters, advising a blue-chip client base that includes:
You may currently be a Senior Associate or a talented mid-level lawyer ready to step up. Ideally, you will have 7+ years’ strong corporate transactional experience and a strategic mindset.
You will enjoy ownership of matters, working closely with partners and clients, and mentoring junior team members.
The Overseas Investment Act frequently features in our work, so knowledge or experience in this area would be advantageous, though not essential.
If you are returning to New Zealand from overseas, we’d love to hear from you – we can be flexible on start dates to support your move.
