At John Holland, our purpose is simple: we transform lives with everything we do. We’ve always known at its heart infrastructure is about people — our customers, our employees, and the communities in which we work.

That’s our difference. Deep experience and capability with a genuine care about creating better lives for people along the way.
Be part of a team that thrives on rising to the challenge of transforming lives for good.

Are you up for the challenge?

We are currently looking for an experienced Senior Legal Counsel to join our legal function based in our Pyrmont office, in NSW. 

Reporting into the General Counsel Northern, you will be accountable for ensuring the operation of the legal functions primarily in NSW, QLD, NT, ACT and NZ are conducted within the limits prescribed by law and that John Holland’s rights are fully protected through the provision of legal advice and guidance. 

The focus of the position will be the provision of legal advice and support across our Infrastructure, Building and Rail Business Groups. 

About the Role:
  • Provide legal advice to ensure John Holland’s interests are protected, and that commercial arrangements and risk management are acceptable, particularly with reference to John Holland’s procedures and Authority Levels, and applicable legislation
  • Review, negotiate, draft and settle contracts and other commercial arrangements to safeguard John Holland’s interests
  • Provide legal advice and support to all John Holland Business Groups, including in the resolution of claims, disputes and differences as and when they arise
  • Work closely with John Holland’s commercial teams to achieve business outcomes
  • Ensure that stakeholders are actively engaged and that beneficial relationships between John Holland, clients, subcontractors, community and other external parties are developed and maintained
About You:

This position will require you to hold Graduate qualifications in Law, as well as a current Australian Practicing Certificate.

You will have extensive experience as a practicing lawyer in the construction, engineering, resources or transport industry, with a majority of experience in providing contract and construction legal advice, negotiating and settling contracts, and managing disputes and differences.

As part of the team, you help us deliver on our promise to transform lives.

Your success is reflected in ours, so we’re committed to being an employer of choice. We pride ourselves on having a diverse and inclusive workplace, as different perspectives and ideas will deliver our long-term success. 

We want you to be with us for the long-term, so providing you with rich career experiences and ongoing development is our priority. 

We are committed to building a diverse workforce and strongly encourage applications from First Nations people, women, people with disability, people from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds, mature age workers and people who identify as LGBTI+.

What’s in it for you when you join John Holland?

We’re about connecting your sense of purpose to ours. We understand that your career is one of the biggest ways to have an impact on the world. We also believe in supporting you as a whole person, not just an employee.

We reward and support our people in so many ways. This starts with being flexible about how different people like to work. From industry-leading leave policies to wellbeing and relationship support, your needs sit at the heart of our employee benefits. 

We offer: 

Competitive remuneration with salary continuance, and salary sacrifice packaging options available. 

Great leave benefits including 18 weeks paid parental leave with superannuation and up to an extra 18 weeks of superannuation paid on further periods of unpaid parental leave, multicultural leave exchange and two additional John Holland Days to prioritise health and wellbeing. 

Career progression underpinned by our exciting pipeline of work means you’ll have the opportunity to work on iconic projects that are shaping cities and communities. 

Learning and development opportunities where you’ll have access to emerging talent programs, building your career through clear career pathways, and technical and leadership training and development opportunities. 

Inclusion and diversity is part of how we work and do what we do at John Holland. Our active commitment to being an employer of choice is evident in the delivery of our Gender Equality Strategic Plan supported by our Pride, Celebrate Women, RAP and Grow networks. 

Flexible working that works for you as we know flexibility means different things to different people. Whether it’s flexi-hours, flexi-parenting, flexi-leave, flexi-shifts, flexi-work, we’re committed to helping our people work flexibly.
