The Victorian Government Solicitor's Office (VGSO) serves the rule of law exclusively for the State. The VGSO provides responsive legal services exclusively for the Victorian Government and public sector. Our place within government ensures we are at the centre of legal change, reform and problem-solving.
About the branch
The Litigation and Dispute Resolution (L&DR) Branch is a team of approximately 60 legal practitioners and an additional team of 35 (approx.) legal support staff, including paralegals that provide specialist legal services to a large number of government clients and departments.
About the role

Reporting to Lead Counsel, the successful candidate will lead and supervise a team of enthusiastic and dedicated lawyers and paralegals, while providing high level legal advice across Government.

You will bring to this role your strong ability to demonstrate sound judgement on complex legal matters based upon significant experience, along with the ability to develop positive existing client relationships and establish new business opportunities. Applicants will benefit from having a strong understanding of the structure and culture of government and of the political and legal sensitivities of operating within the public sector.
Please note: Previous experience handling broad personal injury and negligence matters is essential.
VGSO offers an inclusive, collegiate and collaborative work environment where you will be well-supported and mentored to develop your knowledge. VGSO embraces flexibility and welcomes a conversation to help you achieve work-life balance.
