The incumbent must be capable of building strong and effective working relationships with people at all levels across the Group and representing Transurban in meetings or communications with external stakeholders.

Day-to-day, you will:

Provide high-quality legal advice to support the continued delivery and integration of major road network projects in NSW.

Assist with contract administration, negotiation, dispute resolution, and the drafting of relevant documentation.

Ensure legal obligations are met and legal risks are managed while aligning with the Group's business objectives.

Build strong and effective working relationships with people at all levels across the Group.

Represent Transurban in meetings or communications with external stakeholders.

Manage external legal advisers to meet the Company's commercial objectives and manage associated costs effectively.

Assist with the management of claims, disputes, and litigation arising in relation to the projects.

This role will suit someone with a curious mind and transferrable skills and experiences, including:

Post-qualification experience within a law firm or relevant corporate sector.

Law degree and qualification as a lawyer in Australia or comparable jurisdiction.

Admission as a solicitor in Australia and current practicing certificate.

Ability to interpret legislation and legal requirements and apply them clearly and effectively to relevant business operations.

Good technical skills, with experience in drafting and negotiating complex commercial contracts.

Proactive approach to managing legal risk.

Ability to build effective working relationships with individuals at all levels both within the organisation and externally.

Highly regarded:

Experience in construction law, major projects (including Public Private Partnerships), and litigation/dispute resolution matters.

If you meet some of these requirements, but not all, we encourage you to submit your application.

With a career at Transurban, you'll enjoy a range of benefits, including:

A range of flexible working and leave options, including the option to purchase an additional six weeks of leave each year.

16 weeks paid parental leave (regardless of gender or carer status), with no waiting period, with Superannuation paid during unpaid leave as well.

Learning and development opportunities to support your career interests.

Health and wellbeing support—access to Headspace and our EAP program, wellness facilities, and more.

Share offers and insurance benefits.

Social activities, community give-back programs, and paid volunteer days.

We embrace diversity with a foundation of safety, wellbeing, and inclusion; where everyone belongs. We treat everyone with fairness, consideration, and respect, regardless of gender, gender identity, marital or family status, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, religious beliefs, cultural or socio-economic background, perspective, and experience – whether they work for us or not. We want to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to express ideas, questions, and concerns.

We strongly encourage applications from candidates of diverse backgrounds and lived experiences, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people living with disability. If you require any adjustments or support during the recruitment process, please contact us on
