We're looking for a gun senior corporate / commercial lawyer to help start-ups, blockchain tech companies and SMEs (mainly in the tech space) raise money, enter into agreements with clients and suppliers and help grow their business.
This role is for a 4-7 year PQE lawyer who wants to do things differently and on their own terms.
We don’t have physical offices so you can work remotely. The role is ideal for a lawyer that wants to travel or move overseas without having to re-qualify, someone who is on parental leave or who just wants to work differently.
The plan is to start off as a casual role - hours are flexible, as long as the work gets done the rest is up to you. There is an opportunity for a more permanent arrangement down the track.
Requirements
For this role you will be:
Able to run your own matters, with minor assistance. Guidance and help will always be there where you need it but we have a strong ‘get it done’ approach.
Painfully attentive to detail, almost bordering on ridiculous - clients expect and we deliver on the highest level of service and attention to detail.
Comfortable with commercial and corporate legal documents, and be able to draft on your own even when there is no precedent (shareholder agreements, trust deeds, terms of trade, T&Cs, warranties, supplier agreements, share / asset purchase agreements etc).
You like to figure things out on your own and try new things.
Communicate with and manage clients, without speaking in legalese and providing real answers as to what they should do in their business. We don’t sit above our clients, we sit side by side and help them grow.
Know the Corporations Act like the back of your hand and be comfortable running an end-to-end sale and purchase of shares and assets.
Thirsty to learn new skills and open to doing random and new tasks. We have clients in the blockchain and cryptocurrency markets and no one has the answers, so we are going to explore and learn this all together.
Someone that has great time management, and is used to juggling multiple tasks at once. The work you will do usually has to be done within a 12-24 hour turnaround time.
Massive plus if you're into tech.
Happy to work and communicate remotely – e.g. through Skype, Slack, Trello and Google docs.
About us
We are a small but cool law practice and are looking to grow because of all the demand from clients - we tell it straight and get the job done. We work with lots of startups and SMEs in the tech industry - check us out at www.blackgoldlegal.com .
How to apply
Send us your resume (no longer than 2 pages) and a cover letter that includes your best lawyer joke in one single PDF.
