Anderson Lloyd succeeds thanks to the quality of our people. It is our expertise and passion that has delivered great results for our clients.  Our values define us and we are looking to align with likeminded people to lead the legal profession into a brighter, more sustainable future.

  Recently recognised by NZ Lawyer as one of the most innovative firms in New Zealand, Anderson Lloyd is the first law firm to earn ToitÅ« carbonzero accreditation and is a certified Living Wage Employer. We are also a regular award winner at the New Zealand Law Awards for the Law Firm of the Year and Employer of Choice.  

We do everything in our power to develop, encourage and support our people. Today, within our offices in Queenstown, Auckland, Christchurch and Dunedin, we take pride in our culture of high-quality work and collaborative achievement.

  The Team  

We have an exciting opportunity to work with Derek Roth-Biester who heads up our well-established and nationally ranked, Technology & Digital team.  Derek is recognised as a leading individual in the technology space and has an immediate need for a senior corporate/tech lawyer who is a self-starter.  

Working directly alongside Derek and his team, you will have a unique opportunity to advance your career as you become involved in all aspects of this very busy practice with a national and international client base.  You will be exposed to a variety of specialised and exciting work, including capital raises and M&A for tech companies, VC fund establishment, film/media advice, commercial contracting including technology procurement, data privacy advice and the creation, protection and monetisation of intangible assets.

You can be confident you will be given opportunities to take on responsibility focused on your development but with the necessary guidance and support. You will also have the benefit of building close working relationships across the firm's wider Corporate Commercial team, who openly encourage a culture of shared knowledge and expertise, development and mentorship.

You

Ideally you will have between 4-6 years of corporate commercial experience with some exposure to, or interest in technology, media and/or venture capital transactional and funds work. You will have a strong academic transcript, good technical skills, be able to engage confidently with clients and possess a genuine interest in living and working in Queenstown.

You may also be:

• In a large firm looking for a more personal and flexible team environment while retaining a strong brand, excellent clients and work;
• Working in a smaller practice looking for greater stimulation, specialisation and career growth; or
• An energetic and ambitious intermediate lawyer who has an eye for an opportunity!

  In return we will provide you with a highly engaging and supportive work culture, complex and stimulating work, excellent coaching, and the training and career development of a firm invested in your future success.

We are open to discussing relocation support for the right candidate and while we would prefer someone to be based in Queenstown, we may also consider applications from other locations in New Zealand.
