Why work with us

Legal Aid NSW strives to be a place where people from diverse backgrounds want to work, where voices and cultures are valued and where people feel valued, welcomed, respected and heard.

We are a FlexReady certified agency!

Flexible working involves re-thinking ‘when, where and how’ we work. It’s about supporting and promoting wellbeing, performance and a ‘work life balance’ for all our staff.

At Legal Aid NSW, we have an ongoing commitment to flexible working and an openness to having conversations about flexible working with our staff and with prospective future employees.

This commitment has been recognised by FlexCareers; a careers platform connecting talented individuals seeking a more balanced life, with employers committed to offering flexible work, through our FlexReady Certification.

If you have any questions about flexible working at Legal Aid NSW, please email flexwork@legalaid.nsw.gov.au.

Our commitment to diversity and inclusion

Legal Aid NSW is committed to building a workplace culture that values diversity and inclusion. Legal Aid NSW welcomes applicants from diverse backgrounds, including people with disability, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, the LGBTI community, culturally diverse people and other diverse communities.

Legal Aid NSW encourages applications from people with disability and will provide reasonable adjustments in our recruitment processes and in the workplace.

Legal Aid NSW provides dignified access to accommodate the diverse needs of our community. We acknowledge and support the access needs of people with visible and invisible disabilities, as such all of our offices are accessible. If you require a reasonable adjustment in order to participate in the recruitment process, or seek alternative access to our offices, please contact our team by email at erecruitment@legalaid.nsw.gov.au, or call us on (02) 9219 5000 and advise your preferred method of communication.

The NSW Public Service Commission’s website also has information supporting employment for people with a disability in the NSW Public Sector.
