What you will do

Brighte’s Legal team exists to provide innovative legal services that fast track Brighte to making every home sustainable. We’re looking for another Lawyer to join us on this mission - someone who will work with us and contribute to our vision to be the most commercial, agile and value adding legal function in the tech ecosystem.

· You’ll be part of a team that services the whole business which may include contract reviews and drafting, training for the business, supporting debt capital and fundraising activities, consumer and competition advisory and governance and board support.

· You’ll be a trusted advisor to Brighte’s internal and external stakeholders, partnering closely with people within the company and externally to understand their needs and deliver to help them achieve their goals

· Assist the business to identify new projects that add value and work together to advise on how to make them happen.

Please note this is a 6-month fixed-term contract, with a possibility of extension.

What you will bring

· Tertiary qualifications in Law and admitted as a legal practitioner and eligible to hold a NSW legal practising certificate as a corporate legal practitioner. 

 5+ years PQE

· You have a strong commercial contracts background, ideally with competition law experience.

· You are a different kind of lawyer - you want to get your hands into business, working with stakeholders directly and creating value for a company.

· You’re commercial in the way you look at and advise on the law. We pride ourselves on being advisors to the company and sitting in with key stakeholders of the business, rather than being seen as an expense or blocker to the growth of the business.

· You’re a team player and will fit in seamlessly with our growing team who work both autonomously and collaboratively across various projects so you’re self driven with high initiative and independence, as well as being comfortable working across a team and cross functionally

· You have a bias for action, a curious mind - always questioning, innovating, and taking initiative.

· You love change Startups are very dynamic environments, so you thrive in a fast-paced environment constant with changes both micro and macro and be willing and excited to adjust and adapt.

· All the normal things that lawyers are great at also apply: communication and interpersonal skills are stellar, you have a detail-oriented mindset but also see the big picture. You have strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills. 

We’re committed to building a culture where our people can thrive, both professionally and personally. So, we offer a variety of benefits and perks to support you and your family.

· Flexible working arrangements to suit individual needs and a hybrid work model. Our office is designed for collaboration, creativity and balance between office engagement and remote flexibility.

· Get social. Connect over lunch at Noodle Wednesday’s and Burger Thursday’s, plus a weekly Thursday social event, where you can catch up with colleagues over a drink, snack and a game of table tennis.

· End-of-trip facilities. Cycle in to work, lock up your wheels and have a shower in our end-of-trip facilities, which come complete with towel service and hair dryers.

· Anniversary leave - your dedication at Brighte won’t go unnoticed. Enjoy an extra day to celebrate your work anniversary with us.

Diversity and Inclusion

At Brighte, we celebrate diversity and encourage you to bring your whole self to work. Our inclusive culture is the foundation of our innovative and dynamic environment.
