Network Operations includes Australia Post letter and parcel delivery, StarTrack Express, premium services, fleet and asset management, operations technology, and facility property.

The Corporate Lawyer will support this key area of the business which is continually evaluating its processes and simplifying its operating model, to ensure sustainability of our parcel deliveries, while bedding down changes to letters delivery.

  • Develop and maintain standard form legal documentation, resources, and toolkits
  • Advocate for strong corporate ethics and governance
  • Identify legal issues and risks in existing business operations and new business initiatives
  • Assist in training the business to understand their legal rights and compliance obligations

About you

  • You will hold an unrestricted Australian practicing certificate
  • Strong commercial acumen with excellent negotiation, drafting, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills
  • The ability to build strong relationships and effectively influence internal and external stakeholders
