Senior Associate, Workplace and Safety- Sydney

Join the best. Be yourself.

At WK, we solve complex legal problems, challenge ourselves to innovate, and create impact for our people, clients, and communities. We’re Asia Pacific’s leading insurance and risk legal business, and due to growth, we’re expanding our Financial Lines team.

Our growth has been phenomenal. Why?

At Wotton Kearney, we attract the best clients because we have the best people, delivering exceptional service to become industry leaders, building a thriving business driven by our shared values - Focus on the Main Game, Have Each Other’s Back, and Be Real - so if you're looking for the best place to grow your career, talk to us.

The Role

As a Senior Associate in our Sydney Workplace and Safety team, you’ll work across the full range of workplace matters, advising and representing insurers, employers and organisations on high-stakes, fast-moving issues. Our national practice has expertise across all jurisdictions, with a strong focus on employment advice and representation in litigated claims.

You’ll be part of a team that is known for adapting to the ever-changing landscape of employment relations and delivering practical solutions to complex problems, including through regular workplace training for clients.

What You’ll Do:

Advise on a broad range of employment and industrial relations matters, including unfair dismissal, general protections, discrimination, bullying and harassment claims
Support clients across sensitive and complex workplace issues, including disciplinary processes, performance management, restructures and regulatory risk
Work closely with government and private sector clients on strategic advisory matters, including award interpretation, enterprise agreements and workforce changes
Manage and defend employment litigation and disputes across state and federal jurisdictions
Provide practical, commercially-minded advice on day-to-day employment risks, compliance and investigations

What We’re Looking For:

A Senior Associate with strong experience in employment law, industrial relations and/or workplace disputes
Confidence advising on both contentious and advisory matters, ideally with exposure to government or large institutional clients
Strong drafting, analytical and problem-solving skills with a practical, solutions-focused approach
Ability to take ownership of matters and build trusted relationships with clients
A collaborative style and genuine interest in developing your career in a leading insurance and risk practice

Recognised Excellence - Ranked Australia’s best insurance law firm (Best Lawyers 2026) and consistently ranked Band 1 across legal directories.
FLEX for all -We care about client outcomes, quality, and business and cultural contributions. If you can make that work by working part-time, working “irregular hours” or working from home - then so can we.
Growth & Mentoring - We invest in you with hands-on mentoring, training, and career development, keeping you ahead in the legal and insurance industries.
A Culture That Sets Us Apart - Open, collegiate, and passionate about everything we do. We don’t just talk about culture; we live it.
