Commercial Lawyer

Job description

A well-structured, forward-thinking law firm based in the Auckland suburbs is looking for a commercial lawyer to join their team. This is an opportunity to work in a supportive environment that combines the efficiency and systems of a large firm with the approachability and flexibility of a boutique practice.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Modern Systems & Efficient Processes

The firm leverages cutting-edge legal tech and streamlined workflows to support your practice and reduce admin burden.

Work-Life Balance

Enjoy a genuinely positive and inclusive culture with low staff turnover, regular team events, and the option to work from home one day a week once you’re up to speed.

Strong Leadership & Mentorship

You’ll work closely with a highly experienced commercial director who brings a calm, methodical and solution-focused approach to both leadership and client service. You’ll benefit from structured training and hands‑on development in a role with room to grow.

Tried & Tested

Feedback from lawyers placed here indicates that the leading partner has built a collaborative and positive environment. The technology and office facilities are excellent, and lawyers feel they have a long‑term future with the firm.

The Role

This role sits between a junior lawyer managing smaller commercial matters and a senior director managing large-scale transactions. You’ll be responsible for running your own files with transactional values typically between $2 million and $5 million.

  • Business sale and purchase agreements
  • Commercial leasing and property transactions
  • Shareholder agreements and company structuring
  • Joint ventures and commercial negotiations
  • General commercial contracts and advisory
  • Some overflow of work for owners of privately owned firms
  • Building trusted relationships with clients across a range of sectors

There is flexibility to consider someone working four days per week.

What We’re Looking For

  • A minimum of 3‑6 years’ post‑admission experience in commercial law
  • Experience managing transactional work from end to end
  • Strong drafting skills and attention to detail
  • A pragmatic, client‑focused approach
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and a team‑first mindset
  • Commercial work forms part of your day‑to‑day, but you want to specialise further
  • Currently in a larger firm commuting to the CBD, seeking suburban location while retaining quality work and a clear path to partner
  • Confidentiality Assured

    All enquiries will be handled with strict confidence. If you’re ready to take the next step in your commercial legal career with a firm that genuinely supports your professional and personal growth, we’d love to hear from you.

    Please get in touch to hear more – or 09 973 5470
