About LegalVision

LegalVision is a market disruptor in the commercial legal services industry. Our team uses custom-built technology to deliver fast, high-quality legal support with predictable pricing for clients, and rewarding careers for those who work here. With rapidly scaling operations across Australia, the United Kingdom and New Zealand, LegalVision offers clear progression, exposure to complex work at scale, and the opportunity to be part of an innovative law firm recognised as a 5 Star Employer of Choice, a Top 25 Attraction Firm, and Law Firm of the Year.

The Opportunity

Our Corporate Transactions practice is growing, and we’re looking for an experienced M&A lawyer to join us. Our team advises founders, investors and growing businesses on a wide range of transactions, from early-stage investments through to complex acquisitions and exits. We combine high-quality legal work with technology and process innovation to deliver a brilliant client experience.

You will play a key role in advising founders, owner-managed businesses, and investors on private M&A transactions across a range of industries including technology, professional services, healthcare and e-commerce.

Our team works on a steady pipeline of deals, including:

  • Venture capital investment
  • Strategic acquisitions
  • Founder exits
  • Complex restructures
  • Debt facilities

You will run transactions end-to-end, work closely with founders and commercial stakeholders, and collaborate with other specialists across the firm.

You will also be responsible for supervising a small team of talented lawyers and graduates. As such, you will demonstrate a genuine interest in training and mentoring juniors and supporting their growth in the firm.

With genuine responsibility, autonomy, and the chance to step up into leadership, this role is ideal for a Senior Associate level lawyer ready to take the next step in their career.

The Ideal Candidate

  • At least 5 years’ PQE in a reputable legal environment specialising in corporate transactions, particularly private M&A.
  • Confidence in running deals and managing negotiations.
  • Excellent drafting skills and attention to detail.
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to build trust and credibility with clients and stakeholders.
  • A solutions-oriented mindset, strong business acumen, and the ability to provide pragmatic legal advice
  • A collaborative team builder and player who leads by example and thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. Additional experience directly managing or supervising junior lawyers will be highly valued.

The Perks

  • Gain exposure to a diverse range of clients and legal matters, and develop close relationships with your clients.
  • Build strong people management and supervision skills.
  • Enjoy flexibility, autonomy and working within an incredible team, all while building a practice and supercharging your career.
  • Meaningfully contribute to the growth and direction of LegalVision.
  • Earn additional ‘LV Leave’ days, plus paid birthday leave, volunteering leave, and parental leave.
  • Annual budget to spend on external learning and development.
  • Regular team socials, drinks and team lunches.
  • Vibrant office environment in Surry Hills super close to Central Station, and flexible work-from-home options.

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.
