  • A high level of client contact
  • Commercial transactional project matters, corporate/commercial matters, government procurement work and a range of agreements including licensing agreements, service agreements
  • Both New Zealand and offshore clients
  • A friendly and supportive team, with a high level of autonomy

  • with a desire to work with existing and new clients on business growth; and
  • friendly, with a sense of humour, down to earth/authentic, who is also hard working, focused and ambitious.

What's in it for you

  • Be strategically involved in direction and growth of Hamilton Locke in the New Zealand market.
  • An opportunity for business travel
  • Be mentored in a supportive environment, with access to quality work, great clients and professional development opportunities.
  • A fun, collaborative and high-performing team environment with regular social events, training days and international team retreats.
