Legal Counsel

We’re powered by purpose

Mable is an online platform connecting Australians looking for disability and aged care support to independent support workers. Since 2014, we’ve been helping our community live their kind of independence, and today we’re one of Australia's largest and fastest growing healthtech platforms. 

We have been recognised in AFR’s Fast 100 list, Deloitte’s Tech Fast 50, and won the Australian Growth & Australian Technology Growth Company of the Year Award in 2020! So don’t miss your opportunity to join a thriving scale-up and deliver change to Australia’s care and support sector.

This is a rare opportunity for a dynamic and pragmatic commercial lawyer 4+ PQE to join a legal team in a scaling business. You will thrive in a varied role where you will work as part of a small team, collaborating with business functions to address legal and regulatory issues and provide solutions.

You will work under the Head of Legal yet have autonomy to advise on a wide range of matters, influencing the delivery of Mable’s strategic objectives. Working in a profit-for-purpose technology company means you will be able to make a meaningful and positive impact with your legal skills whilst utilising your commercial and innovative mindset.
