Johnson Winter Slattery | Brisbane
Who we are
Johnson Winter Slattery (JWS) is known throughout the market as a leading full-service commercial law firm.
We work on high-profile and complex transactions and disputes, with a focus on commercial outcomes.
We are a firm of more than 400 people, including 85+ partners, with offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra, Brisbane, and Perth.
We have received awards for client service excellence from Beaton Consulting, based on independent client feedback.
Our lawyers and practice groups are highly ranked in all the major legal directories, including Chambers & Partners and Legal500.
About the Team
Our national Energy and Resources team is one of the largest and most highly regarded E&R teams in Australia.
We are ranked Tier 1 for Energy Law, Oil & Gas Law, and Mergers & Acquisitions Law in the Best Lawyers 2025 Rankings.
We were also the Best Lawyers Australian ' Law Firm of the Year ' for Energy Law (2018, 2020, and 2023) or Oil & Gas Law (2017, 2019, and 2022) in 6 of the past 7 years.
No other firm can boast this record.
Individually, many of our partners are recognised leaders in the Australian Energy & Resources sector.
About the Role
An opportunity exists for an experienced Senior Associate / Special Counsel to join our Brisbane office.
You will play a key role in supporting the Brisbane partners (and the broader national team) across the full range of our E&R practice.
This would include the negotiating and drafting of new resources and infrastructure joint ventures, the sale and purchase of major resources and energy assets, the development of new projects, and the negotiation and documentation of high-value procurement and supply contracts, all whilst providing commercial and strategic advice to our clients.
This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate, energetic, and commercially-minded senior lawyer to play a meaningful role in large-scale, high-profile resources and energy transactions.
About You
You are a commercially minded and client-centric lawyer with excellent written and verbal communication skills, including an aptitude for contract drafting.
Ideally, you will have some years of experience working in the E&R sector, but as an absolute minimum, you will have other front-end experience at a leading firm and a strong interest in energy and resources (including traditional mining and oil & gas, but also energy and renewables).
But there is so much more to you.
You:
deliver legal advice with a commercial and client-focused outlook, always;
work well under pressure, meet your deadlines, and excel working autonomously (but also as part of a close-knit team);
have strong communication and stakeholder management skills and you aren't afraid to use them, internally and externally;
take a collaborative, positive, and energetic approach to everything you do;
enjoy engaging with clients and seeking to support the growth of the business; and
have a minimum of 5+ PQE transactional legal experience.
We are a truly national team, and we have a long history of successfully working in teams across geographic locations.
Working at JWS
We value collaboration and our teams work together to achieve shared outcomes.
We care about the wellbeing of our people and will invest time in understanding your objectives so we can support you throughout your career.
We offer:
A collegiate environment with a collaborative culture across offices and practice groups
High-quality work with committed mentors supporting your career development
Comprehensive benefits including competitive remuneration, flexible working, and extensive social and wellbeing initiatives
Opportunities for professional growth through structured learning and development programs, pro bono work, and employee recognition initiatives
If you are looking for a challenging and rewarding opportunity to take your career to the next level, then we would love to hear from you.
We are committed to promoting a workplace that is diverse and inclusive.
We encourage the best people - regardless of race, religion, or belief if any, gender, gender identity, disability, sexual orientation, or age - to fulfil their professional aspirations with us.
In particular, we would welcome applications from First Nations candidates.
Johnson Winter Slattery pays respect to Elders past and present of our nation's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
We honour the deep spiritual, cultural, and customary connections of Traditional Owners to the Australian landscape, including Australia's waterways, land, and sea country.
