Job Description

About Xemplo

Xemplo is a fast‑growing HR technology business delivering SaaS‑based workforce and employment solutions to Australian employers. Xemplo operates within a broader professional services ecosystem that brings together legal, employment and workforce expertise, enabling clients to access high‑quality advice alongside modern, technology‑enabled HR tools. As Xemplo’s platform and client base continue to grow, its affiliated legal services offering is expanding to support employers with scalable, advisory‑focused employment law services.

About the Role

This role offers an opportunity for a commercial, tech-native employment lawyer to step beyond a traditional law firm model and help shape how employment law advice is delivered in a modern, technology-enabled environment. The focus is advisory employment law work, particularly Award interpretation and Fair Work compliance, delivered via structured, subscription-based and prepaid legal service models.

Key Responsibilities

Employment & Workplace Advisory

Advise employers on Modern Award coverage, classifications and pay structures
Interpret the interaction between Awards, enterprise agreements and the NES
Provide advice on Fair Work Act compliance and minimum employment standards
Assist with employment contracts, workplace policies and HR frameworks
Advise on performance management, disciplinary processes, termination and redundancy

Subscription & Scalable Legal Services

Deliver employment law advice under prepaid and subscription-based models
Operate within defined scopes of service and escalation frameworks
Contribute to repeatable advisory workflows and legal guidance materials
Balance efficiency with professional judgment and legal independence

Technology & AI-Enabled Practice

Use AI and legal technology tools to support drafting and award interpretation
Assist in developing reusable legal content, decision trees and internal playbooks
Collaborate with product and operations teams to embed legal expertise into scalable systems

Professional & Regulatory Compliance

Deliver services in accordance with professional and ethical obligations
Maintain accurate documentation and advice records
Operate within governance, supervision and complaints-handling frameworks

About You

Essential

Admitted solicitor in NSW (or eligible for admission)
Minimum 3 years’ post-admission experience in employment or workplace relations law
Strong working knowledge of Modern Awards and the Fair Work Act
Confident providing advisory (non-litigious) employment law advice

Highly Desirable

Experience advising SMEs or high-volume client bases
Exposure to fixed-fee, prepaid or subscription legal service models
Interest or experience in AI, automation or legal technology
Experience working alongside HR or workforce solutions teams

Personal Attributes

Tech-native and comfortable adopting new tools and systems
Systems-oriented thinker who enjoys building scalable solutions
Commercially pragmatic and client-focused
Clear communicator able to simplify complex Award issues
Curious, adaptable and future-focused

Why Join?

Be part of a growing legal services offering within a professional services and technology group
Focus on advisory employment law rather than billable-hour litigation models
Help shape AI-enabled and scalable legal service delivery
Flexible, modern working arrangements
Opportunity to influence practice design and growth
