Careers
Welcome from the Chairman
Working at Maurice Blackburn is a lifestyle choice. Maurice
Blackburn employees fight for outcomes that make a genuine
difference to peoples' lives. We've asked our employees why they
like working at Maurice Blackburn, and many of their responses are
because they're attracted to our firm's values and principles, and
they are passionate about social justice and the right to a fair
go.
Working at Maurice Blackburn is a rewarding experience. You may
be starting your legal career, have been practising law for many
years, or you have skills in areas such as office administration,
reception, human resources, finance, marketing, communications,
facilities, knowledge management or IT.
Personally, I started my legal career at Maurice Blackburn as an
articled clerk and over a 30-year period I have had the privilege
of watching the firm grow to about 600 employees in more
than 25 city, suburban and regional offices in Victoria, NSW, ACT,
WA and Queensland.
Maurice Blackburn is a very supportive workplace, no matter how
long you've been working with the firm. It's a harmonious place
where talented individuals share our passion for helping others.
It's also why we continually invest in initiatives that support our
firm's principles.
At Maurice Blackburn, we provide employees with the right tools,
technology and training to enable them to work effectively and
efficiently. We also offer generous employee benefits

or a financial contribution towards a health and wellbeing activity
(subject to office location)
- learning and development opportunities
