Ready to See the Bigger Picture?

Have you been craving something more than just drafting contracts and providing advice from the sidelines? Wondering what happens after the deal is done?

If you're ready to roll up your sleeves, get closer to the action, and work with a team that’s focused on doing things differently — we’d love to hear from you.

Your Opportunity

At Source Projects, we’re transforming how projects are delivered in the construction industry. We're not just lawyers. We’re problem-solvers, strategic advisors, and partners to our clients.

This is an opportunity for a Lawyer with 2+ years of post-admission experience in construction, projects or commercial law to step into a role that offers true variety, impact, and mentorship. You’ll work closely with our senior legal and commercial team to support the delivery of major projects, helping clients navigate complex issues and keep things moving.

Whether it’s reviewing contracts, advising on project risks or dabbling in project delivery, you’ll be right there with the team – not watching from the sidelines.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll support our clients on large-scale construction projects, helping manage legal risk and drive successful outcomes. Working alongside senior legal and project delivery professionals, your work will include:

  • Advising on project delivery strategies and construction contracts
  • Assisting with risk analysis and advising clients on mitigation approaches
  • Preparing and reviewing key project documents, including notices, claims, and reports
  • Attending client meetings and building strong working relationships
  • Collaborating with commercial, operational, and external stakeholders to ensure our clients’ interests are front and centre

What We’re Looking For

We're looking for a good human – someone who is curious, proactive, accountable, and wants to make a difference.

You might be coming from a law firm, a government agency, or in-house – what matters most is that you're eager to learn, ready to be challenged, and excited by the idea of getting closer to the real-world outcomes of your legal advice.

You’ll also bring:

  • 2+ years’ post-admission legal experience, either in practice or inhouse
  • A strong understanding of commercial law (ideally with experience in construction, major projects, or infrastructure).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • A collaborative, can-do attitude and a desire to build strong relationships
  • An interest in learning the commercial side of project delivery, not just the legal side

Our people-first approach means we invest heavily in our culture, growth, and ways of working – because when our people thrive, so do our clients.

We're lawyers, commercial minds, and industry experts who want to change the way things are done – and have fun doing it.

What’s In It For You?

  • Work on exciting, real-world projects with high-quality clients
  • Learn from experienced senior lawyers and commercial leaders
  • A supportive, down-to-earth team that values growth and innovation
  • Flexible working arrangements – we understand you have a life outside of work
  • Competitive salary, plus access to our Group equity and profit-sharing schemes
