About the role
We are seeking a Senior Associate to play a key role in supporting the continued growth of our Brisbane West personal injuries practice. This role has a strong focus on increasing matter handling capacity, progressing files efficiently, and supporting strong client outcomes across the region.

You will also contribute to the ongoing growth of the practice through relationship management and business development, including maintaining referral relationships and supporting new client opportunities.
This is a role for a senior operator who is comfortable making sound decisions independently, managing competing priorities in a high-volume environment, and delivering results.
