Hiring: Senior Solicitor

Who we are

Franks Ogilvie specialises in public and commercial law. We work with a range of clients across government, political parties / causes, industry groups and not-for-profits. Our small team enjoys new challenges, tricky public policy challenges and finding solutions where others might not.

We expect the same from you.

You would be expected to manage client files and advise across the practice. Our preference is for someone with public law or commercial law experience but demonstrated energy and commitment to learning new skills would be recognised.

About you:

• 2 - 5 years PQE with experience gained in commercial law, a regulatory or public law/litigation role – whether in a law firm, government or crown owned entity;
• An interest in learning and applying your knowledge and skills in a  Public Law context;
• NZ qualified; and
• Good academics (B average or higher in your degree LLB is a must).
  A degree in economics, politics or financial literacy would be a bonus.

You may be looking to take a step out of big law firm compartmentalisation, government or regulatory employment into a role where there is more room for rapid advancement. We rarely work on the same kind of matter twice.  We are happy to discuss the role and type of work we do before application so please drop us a line.
