The Legal Counsel will provide practical, commercially focused legal advice across procurement and merchandise functions while managing a varied portfolio of commercial matters. They will draft, review, and negotiate supply and services agreements while collaborating with business stakeholders to manage legal and regulatory risks.
Candidates must hold a current Australian legal practising certificate and possess approximately three or more years of post-qualification experience in-house or in private practice. Strong expertise in commercial contracting, procurement, and stakeholder management is essential for this role.
A new role means a new way to win together. We’ve been proudly serving Australian communities since 1914 and at the heart of our continued success lies our 115,000 team members working across the country. If you’re looking for a career-defining opportunity, take the next step and explore another way your work can have impact and make a difference.
Because of our size, who we are and what we do, each day brings with it a lot of complexity that our legal team make simple. With a deep understanding of Coles Group’s goals and values, we’re able to provide practical and commercial advice that helps us all win.
The Commercial Legal team supports the procurement and merchandise functions across Coles Group. We work closely with business stakeholders on commercial contracting, supplier relationships, strategic projects, governance and the management of legal and regulatory risk.
This is a 12-month fixed-term Legal Counsel opportunity within the Commercial Legal team. Reporting to a Managing Legal Counsel, you’ll work across both procurement and merchandise and advise on a varied portfolio of commercial matters.
The role offers broad in-house exposure within one of Australia’s largest retailers.

You’ll manage a range of matters autonomously, with support from experienced senior lawyers and specialist legal teams where an issue is particularly complex or high risk. You’ll also have the opportunity to develop experience across different business portfolios and contribute to a collaborative Commercial Legal team.
You’re a commercially minded lawyer who provides clear, practical advice and enjoys working closely with the business. You’re comfortable taking ownership of matters, exercising sound judgement and managing competing priorities, while recognising when an issue requires escalation or specialist input.
You bring a collaborative approach and are interested in developing broad commercial experience across both procurement and merchandise.
