SalaryAbout Pinsent Masons
Pinsent Masons is one of the world's leading law firms, with a rapidly growing presence in Australia built on a reputation for outstanding work for clients and genuine care for its people.
We focus on five key sectors: Advanced Manufacturing & Technology, Energy, Financial Services, Infrastructure and Real Estate. Our practice teams - Finance & Projects, Property, Risk Advisory Services and Transactional Services - work collaboratively across these sectors.
The result is work for blue-chip clients on the full lifecycle of vital projects and transactions that shape markets across the world.
In Australia, we are rapidly growing with offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. We are well connected into our global network, which results in rewarding work and unique career opportunities.
Most importantly, we are a purpose and people led law firm.
Our purpose is to make business work better for people. That means constantly questioning how the world works and then being bold with our responses.
Our people are what drive this purpose. We want lawyers who bring their own unique experience to the firm, are constantly curious, and who meaningfully connect with their colleagues and clients. In return, we provide an environment where our lawyers can drive their development, work flexibly and learn fast.
