About the Team
We boast one of the leading national property practices in Australia and within the practice have a busy national leasing practice. With a client list that includes a number of Australia’s largest and most high-profile retail landlords, the opportunity arises at a time when our team both in Victoria and nationally is recognized as one of the pre-eminent leasing practices in the country.
About the Role
We are currently seeking a motivated junior leasing paralegal or law student with an interest in leasing to join our busy Melbourne team led by industry-leading partners.
