We are a team of highly skilled lawyers supporting a range of different products and stakeholders with humour and humility.
Collaboration is key to our team's success and we are looking for a commercially-focussed lawyer who is open to cultivating skills to assist in the variety of matters we support.
The work is varied and may include assisting with:
new product and service innovation and enhancements, including 'as-a-service' offerings through APIs
contractual negotiations with referrers, intermediaries, brokers, service providers, agents or other entities within the payments ecosystem
advising in relation to scams, customer complaints and remediation
general banking and financial services advice and project or product migration work

and drive to completion complex commercial agreements that achieve business objectives, and continue to support those business relationships once consummated
The capacity to build excellent relationships with a range of stakeholders and the ability to clearly communicate complex issues
A team-oriented outlook, a sense of humour, unquestioned ethics and integrity, sound judgment and humility
An interest in learning about new practice areas and products rather than focusing on a particular area of law
Experience
or interest
in payments, platforms and networks or financial services regulation
*We are interested in the right mindset and aptitude. Most of our team are 10+ PAE and we encourage more senior practitioners to apply. Title and remuneration subject to experience and skills of the successful candidate.
