Jungle looking for entrepreneurial business lawyers

Jungle Management is a great little law firm that I ran across whilst looking for great business names (Jungle was one of the better ones). Since then I had a chance to interest one of their lawyers, Wei-Ling Chan, in the NSW Knowledge Management Forum and consider using them for my own legal needs.

Jungle's CEO, Kim Tunbridge, sent out an email to their newsletter subscribers today mentioning that they are looking for more legal talent to add to their team. In her words:

As you have come to know Jungle through our regular newsletters, we thought you would have a fairly good idea of the type of people who would be great in our team.

We are expanding in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane and are looking for dynamic lawyers who think outside the square and are passionate about business, getting results and building relationships. Please see our advert below.

These guys are great, and I really believe in their business model, so I am quoting their job ad in full in case any readers of my blog know someone who would be interested in this sort of career move.

Senior & Junior Legal Counsels

• Entrepreneurial hybrid law firm
• Sales, marketing, advertising, media, entertainment and IT industries
• Recruiting for Sydney, Melbourne & Brisbane

The Company

Entrepreneurial by nature, Jungle Management is an innovative law firm in an active growth phase. The lawyers, who are more akin to in-house counsel, work for a dynamic client base in sales, marketing, advertising, media, entertainment and information technology.

The Roles

These senior and junior roles are pivotal to the business. You will provide expert legal advice to existing clients as well as be responsible for business development.

More than just another role for just another lawyer, these are hands-on legal and business focused roles for lawyers wanting to play a strategic part in a non-traditional and growing business.

There are also opportunities for lawyers with the right skills, experience and attitude to take on managerial roles, establish new branches of the business and own equity in the business.

The Lawyers

You will have 2 to 8 years experience in corporate and commercial law, and ideally intellectual property law. You are ambitious, dynamic, genuine and have excellent interpersonal skills. You are also an outstanding drafter and negotiator who is commercially focused and has experience on secondment or in house.

If you are interested in joining our dynamic team, please email your cover letter and resume to Alexandra Lazar at alazar_at_jungle.com.au or PO Box 633, Queen Victoria Building NSW 1230.
