Candidates

At Alex Correa Executive, we work with lawyers across Brisbane and Queensland who are thinking carefully about what comes next.

Some are ready to apply for a role. Others are exploring the market, returning after time away, relocating, considering government or in-house work, or wondering whether their current path still fits.


We know there is always more to a legal career than what appears on a CV.

A role may look right on paper, but the real question is whether it fits your experience, working style, values and the kind of lawyer you are, or want to become.

Our role is not to push every opportunity. It is to help you understand what a move could mean, how the market may read your experience, and where your strengths, interests and ambitions may be better recognised.

How we support lawyers.

We take the time to understand the work you have done, what you want more of, the environments where you do your best work, and the practical realities shaping your next step.

That may include advice on how to position your experience, which firms or teams may suit you, what a role is really offering, or whether now is the right time to make a change.

Sometimes our advice is to apply. Sometimes it is to wait, build more experience or consider a different pathway.

Explore legal career pathways.

The Queensland legal market is varied, and the same role title can mean different things across firms, teams and organisations.


Use these practice area resources to look beyond the title and consider what each pathway may offer: the work, the clients, the environment, the progression, and the questions worth asking before you decide what comes next.

Alex was warm, responsive and communicated clearly at each stage of the process. I would recommend others to work with her. Thank you Alex! 


Judy,

Alex was fabulous to work with. She understood her Client well both the environment and the role. From her initial screening interview to the very end she was engaged. She was invested in making sure that the Candidate experience was good and the match was right for both parties.

Let us help you find a role that is truly aligned with what you value most.

If you are considering a move, returning to the market or unsure how your experience may be read, use the contact form to tell us a little about where you are now and what you are hoping to explore next. You do not need to have everything worked out before you get in touch. We will take the time to consider your experience, goals and timing, and where there may be alignment with current or future opportunities.

Alex Correa Executive also shares practical guidance for lawyers through resources, salary insights and Alex Advocates. These are designed to help you think more clearly about your legal career, not just your next application.

Current roles are only one part of the conversation, but they can help you see what is possible. Browse recent legal opportunities to understand where demand is sitting, what employers are looking for, and which roles may be worth a closer look.
