Location: Melbourne

Contract Type: Permanent

MinterEllison is one of Australia’s largest independent law and consulting firms. With a heritage of almost 200 years, we are known for our excellence, and our authentic and enduring relationships with our clients, our people and our communities. Clients seek out MinterEllison to help them solve complex problems every day. We do this by our full-service legal offering and complementary consulting offering.

We offer opportunities to work on industry-leading mandates for top-tier clients, while being part of a high-performing and collaborative team that values excellence, diversity of thought, curiosity, and inclusion. We value our people and empower them to achieve their ambitions - with the support, trust and autonomy to grow their careers in meaningful ways.

At MinterEllison, we're leading the way with AI and other emerging technologies, powering innovation right across our firm. You will have the opportunity to engage with AI tools we've built, and other external AI tools, to enhance efficiencies and excellence internally and with our clients.

We support sustainable ways of working regarding how, when and where you work and offer a wide range of social, financial and health benefits (see https://www.minterellison.com/-/media/Minter-Ellison/Files/Careers/MinterEllison-Employee-Benefits-Dec_2025.pdf)

The Team

Our Projects, Energy and Resources team is recognised as one of Australia's premier practices, consistently advising governments, major corporations, and financial institutions on transformative infrastructure and energy projects. The team brings together deep sector expertise across transport, social infrastructure, renewables, traditional energy, and resources.

Peter Block leads our Melbourne Projects practice and is widely acknowledged for his strategic counsel on complex project structuring, procurement, and financing matters. His client-focused approach and collaborative leadership style create an environment where team members thrive and develop into exceptional practitioners.

The Opportunity

Due to an increase in deal flow and a strong pipeline of work, we are looking for an Associate to join our market-leading Projects, Energy and Resources practice in Melbourne.

Working closely with Peter Block, a highly regarded partner with extensive experience advising on major infrastructure and energy projects across Australia and internationally, you will engage in a diverse range of complex matters. These include advising on infrastructure projects, procurement, project structuring, development, and financing of large and complex infrastructure and corporate projects. Given the broad nature of the work, you will also have the opportunity to collaborate with teams across other practice groups.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join a dynamic and growing team at the forefront of Australia's most significant infrastructure and energy developments, offering genuine exposure to high-profile transactions and clear pathways for long-term career progression.

More About You

We welcome applications from lawyers who have:

3+ years' post admission experience gained within a large commercial law firm;
Experience in infrastructure, projects or construction matters highly regarded;
Strong communication, technical drafting and problem solving skills;
Team player attitude and willingness to work collaboratively across all levels of the team;
Demonstrated ability to form enduring relationships with peers, clients and fellow advisers;
Resilience and a commitment to provide exceptional levels of service to our local and international client base.
A genuine interest in the infrastructure and energy sectors and a desire to build a long-term career in this space.

How to apply

We encourage applications from people of all ages, abilities, cultural backgrounds, genders (including trans or gender diverse), LGBTQ+ people and those with carer responsibilities. We particularly encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to apply.

We prefer to connect with people directly, so please submit your CV by clicking on the 'Apply' button. We encourage all applications, including if you do not meet all the criteria listed for the role. Your application will also enable us to consider you for other opportunities that may be available at MinterEllison.
