Could this be you? Workplace Investigator

Justitia is seeking an investigator to conduct workplace investigations.

Part-time and fully remote applicants welcome.

About the firm

Justitia is an award-winning law firm for employers focused on people and solutions. We support our clients at every stage of the employment cycle and help them create and sustain healthy workplaces where their people can thrive. We are highly sought after for our expertise conducting workplace investigations consistent with principles of procedural fairness and trauma informed practices.

We investigate complaints and allegations in government, private sector, not-for-profit organisations and educational institutions. Our investigators are retained directly by an organisation, or by a law firm.

We are champions of true workplace flexibility and collaborative work culture. We genuinely believe that workplace investigators and lawyers should not have to choose between having a successful career and a fulfilling, healthy personal life.

We are proud of our points of difference:

• We leave our egos at the door
• We strive for sustainable outcomes
• We support rather than compete with each other
• We are empathetic

About you

You should have a law degree, 3+ years of experience either conducting or advising on workplace investigations, and be available to work a minimum equivalent of three days per week. We require flexibility – sometimes we will need you to work a little more than your regular hours, but you’ll get time off in lieu for the work that you do.

At Justitia, you will be conducting a variety of workplace investigations, preliminary assessments and workplace reviews. Skills and experience in any of the following areas would be valued:

• the application of procedural fairness principles to workplace investigations
• conducting complex and sensitive workplace investigations into matters such as bullying, sexual harassment and discrimination
• conducting investigations under the Reportable Conduct Scheme
• the application of whistleblower and protected disclosure legislation to workplace investigations
• conducting investigations for the public sector

You do not need to have all of the above skillsets, but you must have:

• excellent writing and analytical skills;
• an ability to work collaboratively and when required, autonomously;
• an ability to manage multiple matters with often competing deadlines; and
• an interest and capacity to be client-focused.

If you join our team, you can expect to be mentored and supported in order to thrive at work.

How to Apply

Please submit your application to emma.heaton@justitia.com.au including:

• Current CV
• Cover letter/email addressing why you’d like to join Justitia

Applicants should also be prepared to provide referees who can speak to their commitment to teamwork and building strong client relationships, in addition to the qualities outlined above.

Ready to join a firm that genuinely values both excellence and wellbeing?  We’d love to hear from you.
