Working in the public sector is an increasingly attractive option for legal professionals. Mahlab Recruitment regularly recruits on behalf of state and federal government bodies across all levels. This includes sourcing lawyers for legal and or policy roles in government departments, statutory corporations, local councils, universities and regulatory bodies such as ASIC. The public sector offers varied and highly stimulating roles. Many who work in the public sector site the quality of work and the opportunity to work on matters of high public importance as motivators for working in the sector. Roles in the government space can lead to another role within the sector or act as a conduit into the private sector. In particular, Mahlab observes lawyers transitioning from roles in the public sector to the private sector into regulated industries such as finance, energy, telecommunications and transport. Opportunities also exist for lawyers to work in the public sector in a law firm environment, for example, the Australian Government Solicitor's office and equivalent state level entities. |
