What you’ll do:
- Designing, updating and coordinating or delivering property training and regular CPD sessions, including conveyancing training for law clerks, lateral hires and junior lawyers nationally.

- Mentoring junior lawyers and acting as a senior sounding board on complex or unusual property issues.
- Responding to precedent, know-how and information queries from the Property team and other teams across the firm.
- Drafting new precedents and updating existing precedents and procedure documents to reflect changes in law, procedure and practice.
- Preparing practical legal and procedural updates for the team.
- Maintaining the Property team site and reference materials so key resources are current, useful and easy to find.
- Collaborating with other teams to share relevant property-related knowledge.
- Supporting practice compliance processes, including Landonline filing guidance, RLWT and bright-line resources, forms, certifications and audit preparation.
What you’ll bring:
- Strong property law experience, ideally from a commercial law firm environment.
- Excellent technical legal skills, sound judgement, organisational skills and attention to detail.
- Passion for sharing knowledge, mentoring others and helping teams continuously improve.
- Ability to turn complex legal and procedural information into practical guidance, precedents, training materials and communications.
- Collaborative approach and ability to build trusted relationships across teams and offices.
- Experience with Landonline processes and property practice compliance would be an advantage.
What we offer:
- Competitive salary and benefits package including healthcare and annual wellbeing allowance
- Groups and activities to suit your interests: arts & culture, sports, regular team and firm events for connection
We are a collaborative workplace of smart, passionate and hardworking people, united by a commitment to excellence. Work for Aotearoa New Zealand’s largest legal partnership and enjoy a firm which has the resources and structures in place for you to do your best work; as well as people who are caring, inclusive and authentic.
