Senior Associate | Corporate Transactions

LegalVision is a market disruptor in the commercial legal services industry. Our innovative business model and custom-built technology allow our lawyers to provide a faster, better quality and more cost-effective client experience. LegalVision is a leader in delivering legal services and has assisted thousands of businesses across New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom. We have been named a 5 Star Employer of Choice by Australasian Lawyer, and Law Firm of the Year at the Australasian Law Awards multiple times.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a high performing 5+ PQE Senior Associate to join our highly successful Corporate & Commercial practice in January 2026. We’d love the successful candidate to be based in / around Christchurch, but we can be flexible for the right person.

This position is ideal for a well-rounded corporate and commercial lawyer with demonstrated capital raising and M&A expertise, as well as an ability to assist our diverse client base with a varied range of general commercial, privacy and corporate work. You will work alongside a team of exceptional lawyers to deliver quality work and an exceptional experience to every client you interact with.

We act for an incredibly diverse client base, helping them with a broad range of needs including capital raising (Seed, Series A, Series B, and beyond), sale and purchase of businesses, employee incentive schemes, shareholder agreements, share buy‑backs, business structuring, loans and corporate governance, as well as all general commercial law matters.

The Ideal Candidate

  • Experienced : At least 5 years of corporate and commercial law experience in a reputable law firm.
  • Attentive : Brilliant attention to detail - nothing ever slips through the cracks.
  • Efficient : Prioritises effectively, focuses on what matters and works productively.
  • Commercial : Demonstrates business acumen and cares about business growth (including helping to grow LegalVision further).
  • Collaborative : Gets a kick out of working with smart, fun and passionate people and learning from them.
  • Adaptable : Grasps new concepts quickly, improves every day and goes with the flow.
  • Service Orientated : Loves assisting clients and providing an amazing experience.

The Perks

  • Fast‑paced environment with exciting growth opportunities.
  • Talented, fun and supportive managers and team members.
  • Annual budget to spend on external learning opportunities.
  • Earn additional ‘LV Leave’ days, plus paid birthday leave, volunteering leave, and enhanced paid parental leave.
  • Christchurch location, at least 3 days a week in the office (but we’re willing to flex on this for the right candidate!)
  • Apply Today!

    If this role sounds like it could be a great next step, we’d love to hear from you. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and will close once the role is filled, so apply early to avoid missing out.

    Be careful - Don’t provide your bank or credit card details when applying for jobs. Don't transfer any money or complete suspicious online surveys. If you see something suspicious, report this job ad.
