The ideal recruitment agency for legal jobs in Sydney

Overall, the future career outlook is highly optimistic for legal professionals. According to Jobs Outlook, in 2018 there were 12,000 professionals working as barristers across the nation, 17,200 professionals working as court and legal clerks, and 64,000 working as solicitors. The majority of solicitors work in NSW, which is promising news for professionals seeking new legal counsel jobs in Sydney, while many Barristers work in Victoria.

 

Whether it’s property law jobs, legal aid jobs in Sydney, or legal counsel jobs, solicitors in the legal field enjoy a very high average salary, which grows with experience. The average weekly salary for solicitors is around $1,917, compared to the national average of $1,230, and an in-house legal counsel is one of the best paid jobs in Australia, according to the 2019 Michael Page Salary Guide.

 

Data from Jobs Outlook shows the number of barristers grew strongly over the past 5 years and this trend is expected to continue, with 13,800 roles available by 2023. Likewise, the number of court and legal clerks is expected to grow to 18,600 by 2023. For solicitors, however, the trend is likely to remain flat, with an expected 63,000 jobs available in 2023.

 

For professionals considering a future career move, the most promising industries are front-end construction and infrastructure, as well as compliance. Any experience with ASX IPOs are also looked upon favourably by employers, and open up more opportunities for those looking to take the next step.
