A top recruitment agency for legal jobs in Melbourne
According to Jobs Outlook, there were 64,000 solicitors, 12,000 barristers, and 17,200 court and legal clerks across Australia in 2018. Legal professionals enjoy some of the highest salaries in Australia - the weekly average salary for solicitors in 2018 was $1,917, which was more than 50% more than the national average of $1,230.
Barristers who are looking for roles in Melbourne have optimistic prospects: while there are barristers across the nation, many of these roles are available in Victoria, which means there are plenty of opportunities for candidates looking to make their next career move. The profession is also expected to experience strong growth in the next five years, with an additional 1,800 jobs available in 2023.
Candidates seeking legal admin jobs in Melbourne also have a promising outlook in terms of job availability, with an additional 1,400 roles created in the coming half-decade. However, solicitors looking for legal jobs in Melbourne may face more competition in the future: the number of solicitors across Australia is expected to decrease to 63,000 by 2023, and jobs are concentrated in Sydney.
Findings from the 2019 Michael Page Salary Guide showed that the top industries for legal professionals are construction, financial services, property, corporate, and commercial roles, with senior and management roles in high demand. In terms of upskilling, legal professionals should focus on building experience in front-end construction and infrastructure, compliance, or with ASX IPOs in order to be competitive against other candidates.
