From $100/yr
Co-founded by ex-Eucalyptus and ex-BGC operators, Matilda Migration is completely reimagining the visa application process in Australia by building a first-of-its-kind digital migration platform. We've recently secured Seed-stage funding and are growing fast - this is your chance to get in early and help redefine an outdated industry. Overview * We’re hiring another lawyer to join our lean, high-performance team - and if you're a lawyer looking to broaden your horizons beyond a traditional legal career, this role could be for you. * You'll play a critical role in delivering outstanding legal services to our clients, whilst simultaneously helping to shape the digital product we're building to scale our impact. * We're looking for an admitted lawyer with a start-up mindset - someone who thrives when working autonomously, enjoys streamlining processes with tech, and is driven by impact. * This role is perfect for a lawyer who wants to move into startups, as it's an opportunity to utilise your legal experience whilst building a much broader operational skill set and business acumen. What You’ll Be Doing: * Own the Client Journey: You’ll manage the client relationship and coordinate the visa application process end-to-end using the Matilda platform - from eligibility screening right up to lodgement. * Deliver Excellent Outcomes: Work with senior lawyers and migration experts to prepare and review visa applications with a high attention to detail, and a focus on the client experience. * Streamline and Systematise: Identify workflow bottlenecks and help implement tools and processes that improve speed, quality, and consistency. * Wear Multiple Hats: Collaborate across functions - in an early-stage startup, you’ll have exposure beyond pure legal work, including Operations, Growth and Product. Job Requirements * A law degree and 1–3 years of experience working as a lawyer. * Demonstrated track record of outperforming peers in academic, professional, or extracurricular settings. * High ownership and agency - you work autonomously, identify problems before they become blockers, and take pride in doing things well. * A client-obsessed mindset - you consistently put client outcomes first, and use this to guide decisions and problem-solving. * Exceptional written and verbal communication skills. * Strong organisational ability and attention to detail under pressure. Nice-to-Have * Experience in a startup, or in the migration or legal tech sector. * Experience using tools like HubSpot, Notion, Slack. * Interest in or knowledge of the Australian visa system (training will be provided).
