Life at Addisons
Great culture does not just happen
People say Addisons’ culture is special. You’ll hear it’s open, down-to-earth, and high on collaboration.
We are motivated by helping our clients succeed. We’re recognised as great people to work with, or sit across the negotiating table from. We’re proud of our reputation as one of the leading law firms to work for in Australia and to be recognised as a ‘5-Star Employer of Choice 2023 & 2024’ by Australasian Lawyer.
None of that is by chance. We have a clear vision of the firm we want to be: one where you can excel, where you can do your best work and trust your contribution will be recognised and appreciated.
Addisons is a firm built on strong relationships, with clients and with each other.
Building those relationships is a priority. That’s true whether we’re advising our clients across the world, or connecting with colleagues closer to home. Our size and single office location helps everyone to get to know each other quickly. We also make plenty of opportunities to catch up socially – regular drinks, monthly morning teas, ‘meet the team’ lunches, and a range of events organised by our active social committee.
Play a key role in supporting our clients
Our people are essential to our success. Our diverse views, styles and experiences enable us to provide exceptional service to our clients.
As a junior lawyer, you’ll be immersed in a dynamic environment where you can learn from experienced colleagues across the firm who are leaders in their field. You can expect direct client and partner contact and the opportunity to work on significant matters at the early stages of your professional journey.
Senior lawyers are entrusted with essential roles in advising our clients and mentoring junior colleagues. As you advance your career, you’ll be encouraged and supported to build your practice with increasing levels of autonomy and responsibility.
Support to perform at your best
Investing in client success also means investing in our people. We’ll help you build your skills and practice with mentoring, training and professional development.
We value your contribution. In return we offer competitive market salaries, annual performance and salary reviews, regular professional development opportunities and on-going career planning.
We want you to enjoy coming to work each day, and to be free to bring your best self. We value flexibility over bureaucracy, and when life involves juggling work with your personal commitments, we’ll support you to find the balance.
Other benefits include health and wellbeing initiatives such as team sporting activities, on-site Pilates, flu vaccination, Employee Assistance Program, and access to end-of-trip facilities in our building.
