About LEAP

LEAP is the leading provider of Legal Practice Management Solutions in the world and is part of ATI – one of the largest international LegalTech companies. For more than 30 years, our curiosity and commitment to continual improvement has kept us reimagining productivity tools for lawyers and their staff to support our guiding purpose, to ‘Help lawyers who help people’. The market-leading software we develop and support is used by more than 71,000 lawyers and their staff in small and medium-sized law firms.

Working alongside our international team of passionate high achievers, you’ll join a fast-growing technology business where things seldom stay the same for long. With more than 1000 smart, caring and ambitious ‘LEAPsters’ working together across Australia, Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, Poland and New Zealand, you’ll find yourself in good company here.

Meet the Employment Law team

The Employment Law team is a specialist division within LEAP, focused on building software for employment lawyers. We’re a cross-functional team of legal professionals, software engineers, designers, and client-focused specialists, working closely together to deliver practical products used every day by law firms practising in employment law.

Our work is guided by in-house lawyers and informed by a well-established client feedback function, ensuring our products are shaped by real legal practice and continue to evolve in line with how lawyers actually work.

You’ll join as the Employment Law team’s new Forms Designer, helping to ensure our legal forms and precedents are always current, compliant and legally appropriate. You’ll use your experience working with legal documents to help create and maintain automated forms and precedents that make everyday work easier for employment lawyers.

What you'll do

Legislation can change regularly, along with legal forms. The efficiency we offer our clients relies on up-to-date content, with legal forms at the forefront. You’ll put your passion for Microsoft Word to work, ensuring your portfolio of legal forms and precedents is up to date with legislation, fully automated and ready for our clients to use.

You’ll receive a structured training program and ongoing guidance from the Content Manager and content specialists to help you transition into the role and build confidence using our content and automation tools. You’ll use these tools to maintain our comprehensive library of legal content, helping law firms manage matters effectively and produce legal documentation quickly and consistently.

With training and support, you will:

  • Create, update and maintain automated employment law forms and precedents.
  • Research official forms and procedural information, working with the team’s legal specialists to understand and implement required updates.
  • Format and proofread documents to maintain accuracy, consistency and professional presentation.
  • Use LEAP’s automation tools to populate documents with information recorded in legal matters.
  • Review feedback from clients and colleagues, investigate issues and contribute to improvements.
  • Learn to use JavaScript to support dynamic document content and automation, with training provided.
  • Test automated documents, including data fields, conditional content and formatting, and resolve issues with support from the team.
  • Collaborate with clients and internal teams to improve employment law content and matter types.
  • Share knowledge and support colleagues across our Content teams.

Requirements

What you'll bring

You may be a legal secretary or paralegal looking to apply your experience in a SaaS business.

We’re looking for:

  • 3-5 years’ experience supporting a legal practice.
  • Strong Microsoft Word skills and an enjoyment of formatting and working with documents.
  • Familiarity with legal documents through preparing, formatting, proofreading, filing or supporting their use in practice.
  • An understanding of the parties, information and processes involved in legal matters.
  • An interest in technology and an enthusiasm for learning new systems and developing technical skills.

The following would be highly regarded:

  • Experience supporting an employment or workplace law practice.
  • Familiarity with Fair Work Commission forms and processes.
  • Familiarity with employment contracts, workplace policies, correspondence, settlement documents, and court or tribunal forms.
  • Experience using LEAP, other legal practice management software or document automation tools.

LEAP is an inclusive, people-first company committed to breaking down institutional barriers that keep people from reaching their potential. If you meet some, but not all the requirements above, we encourage you to still submit your application.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
