In this role there will be a focus on property, office and retail leasing and construction contracts plus general commercial work.
We strive to deliver our legal services with ingenuity and we are looking for a lawyer who is willing to think differently and shape how we can run the property portfolio of our practice more efficiently including through the use of legal technology.
Macquarie is also working with the NSW Government to deliver Martin Place Metro and there may be an opportunity within this role to assist with that project.
