Senior Associate

We’re proud to be partnering again with Snedden Hall & Gallop, a firm we know well and genuinely admire. Having worked with their leadership team over many years, we can confidently say this is a rare opportunity to join a firm that blends technical excellence with a deeply human approach to law.

We’re recruiting for a Senior Associate-level Employment/Business Lawyer, ideally with 5+ years PQE, but we’re also open to strong Associate-level candidates with 2+ years PQE who bring the right mix of capability and cultural fit.

Why SHG?

• They’re one of Canberra’s most established independent firms, with over 60 years of trusted practice
• The team is collaborative, inclusive, and values-driven, you’ll be joining colleagues who genuinely care about their work and each other
• You’ll work across employment and/or commercial law, with exposure to diverse matters and meaningful client relationships
• SHG is known for its community engagement, professional integrity, and commitment to work-life balance
• Career development is a priority, with mentoring and growth pathways built into the firm’s DNA

We’re looking for someone who’s technically strong, commercially minded, and thrives in a team that values partnership over hierarchy.

If this sounds like your kind of environment, we’d love to hear from you. Reach out to Elsa Gray-Murphy on 05402 092 595 or at elsa@elliottgray.com.au for a confidential conversation.
