This is an exciting opportunity to join our busy litigation and dispute resolution team, focusing on family law.

In the business for more than 105 years, our well-respected firm assists clients throughout New Zealand and overseas.

We offer:

• A modern, attractive, office in the CBD.

• A family-focused work environment.

We are looking for a lawyer with at least 3 years’ P.Q.E. in family law with:

• A focus on delivering clients a high level of service.
• Experience in Court.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.

If you are looking for an opportunity that offers:

...we’d love to discuss the role with you.

Committed to very high standards of service to our clients, and a balanced lifestyle for all who work with us, we don’t expect long hours or excessive billings from our people to earn well or progress their careers rapidly.

We begin with market-leading base salaries comparable with much larger law firms (in the range of $100,000 - $135,000 dependent on your demonstrated experience), and tailor each team member’s WorkPlan to their role and desired work-life balance, in which all work is valued, and remuneration regularly reviewed. The opportunity for additional variable rewards is in your hands.

You’ll be free to take the responsibility, and the commensurate personal accountability, to organise performance of your role flexibly to suit your lifestyle, interests, family, and other non-work commitments.

Standard benefits include an extra day off on your birthday, income protection insurance, monthly firm lunches, a cell phone, an active social club and scones baked in-house every Friday!

We are also happy to discuss relocation assistance if required.

Please apply in the strictest confidence by forwarding your CV, together with any written references, to Shaun Cousins, Partner, care of smainprize@raineycollins.co.nz.
