Job Description
- Provide high-quality, pragmatic legal advice to the real estate, buyer’s agent and agent-services businesses, ensuring commercial outcomes while managing legal and regulatory risk.
- Lead legal support for real estate initiatives including Buyer’s Agents, Aussie for Agents and broader agent-services programs, ensuring these offerings are compliant, scalable and effectively integrated into the wider business.
- Apply expert knowledge of real estate legislation, national and state-based agent-licensing requirements and related regulatory frameworks, translating complex obligations into practical, operational guidance.
- Develop, refine and implement real estate compliance frameworks, policies and processes—embedding “compliant-by-design” principles in new products, business models and service lines.
- Draft, review and negotiate commercial agreements relevant to real estate service delivery, partnership arrangements, supplier relationships and technology enablement.
- Advise on regulatory matters spanning real estate licensing, consumer law, franchising, privacy, data protection and broader corporate and commercial issues impacting agent-led services.
- Support business units as they design and implement new real estate initiatives, system changes, AI-enabled tools, growth strategies and operational enhancements.
- Work closely with investigations, compliance and risk teams on matters involving procedural fairness, agent conduct, governance and regulatory inquiries.
- Stay ahead of legal and regulatory developments affecting real estate, agent services, franchising and financial services, providing clear guidance on impacts and required action.
- Build strong relationships with operational teams, leaders and stakeholders, acting as a trusted adviser who influences decisions and balances commercial and legal considerations.
- Manage interactions with external legal advisers on real estate-related matters, aiming to maximise in-house capability and minimise external spend.
- Contribute to continuous improvement of legal processes, templates and playbooks, with an emphasis on real estate compliance, agent operations and scalable service design.
- Support broader Group-wide legal needs as required, including corporate, commercial, regulatory and incident-related work.
