If you are a talented solicitor with 4+ years PQE, we believe we have the best team, work, culture and opportunity to develop your career and are keen to hear from you.

In addition to top-tier clients and work:



  • Flexible working style and supportive leadership

  • Ongoing learning and development and formal mentoring programme

  • Competitive salary & benefits package incl. health insurance and wellbeing allowance

  • Groups and activities to suit your interests: sports, arts & culture, regular team and firm events for connection

We are a collaborative workplace of smart, passionate and hardworking people, united by a commitment to excellence. Work for Aotearoa New Zealand’s largest legal partnership and enjoy a firm which has the resources and structures in place for you to do your best work; as well as people who are caring, inclusive and authentic.
