About us

We are a modern Australian law firm with a leading reputation. We focus on exceptional service, operational excellence and being at the forefront of employee experience. We work closely with Australian and international businesses, organisations and governments.

About the role

We currently have an exciting opportunity for an experienced lawyer to join Maddocks’ construction litigation team, working with Anna Scannell. The Construction team has four Partners and works across both front and back-end matters. The team has a strong pipeline of varied and interesting work, across a range of clients, including large construction companies and developers as well as government departments and entities.

This role will see you working across a range of matters for both our public and private clients, including:

Disputes relating to time (extension of time and delay costs), variations and defects (including latent defects) arising on construction and infrastructure projects.
Litigated construction disputes in Victorian Courts
Arbitrations under domestic commercial arbitration legislation in Australia
Expert determination and mediation
Experience advising on construction insurance policies (experience in this area would be a bonus but is not essential).

Industries include commercial, energy, gas, electricity, road, rail, mining and residential projects.

We are committed to maintaining our reputation as a high performing construction team, delivering outstanding technical knowledge, great client service and a solid understanding of our client’s legal expectations. We offer high quality work within a diverse practice for people who are passionate about becoming construction law experts.

Working as a Lawyer within in the team, you will have the opportunity to work both autonomously and collaboratively with Partners and other members of the team on both mid and larger scale matters.

About you

You will most likely have approximately 5+ years’ experience in a top/mid-tier firm working across a range of construction disputes. You will also have the following skills:

Excellent communication skills with a proactive approach
Experience mentoring and training junior lawyers
Ability to work both autonomously and within larger teams
A commitment to technical excellence and to continuing learning and development

By joining this team, you will be offered strong mentoring and support and the ability to progress your career in a collegiate environment.

Why join Maddocks?

Maddocks is simply a great place to do great work. We foster a culture of collaboration, learning and engagement where you will experience:

A diverse and inclusive workplace: We have been named an employer of Choice for Gender Equality by the Workforce Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) every year since 2004 along with being named a Silver Employer at the Australian Workplace Equality Index's 2024 LGBTQ Inclusion Awards. We promote diversity internally through our Maddocks Gender Equality Network, Maddocks CALD, Maddocks Disability Inclusion and Maddocks Pride groups.

Career Development: Learn and develop through structured learning and development programs at each stage of your career and study support programs.

Community involvement: give back to the communities in which we operate through our thriving pro bono and grants programs and staff volunteering initiatives.

Work flexibly: work in a hybrid way with part of your week in the office and support to set up your home office.

Wellbeing & Benefits: access to up to 20 weeks paid parental leave, discounted gym memberships & health insurance, salary continuance insurance, Employee Assistance Program and parents and carers wellbeing programs.

Our people are our greatest advocates and we believe this is a result of our inclusive culture and focus on complex and interesting work.
