The Page Seager difference
We offer a modern employment experience unique amongst Australian law firms. Our flexible working arrangements allow you to easily manage your family, work and lifestyle commitments.
Generous remuneration packages, paid parental leave and corporate benefits
Above all, we believe that passion and expertise should be well rewarded. Competitive remuneration is offered alongside a bonus scheme that is generous and transparent. Promotions are merit-based, with clear guidelines and criteria to help you progress.
Our parental leave policy is practical and tailored to ensure the smoothest transition into leave and back to work. Paid parental leave is offered in addition to any Federal Government scheme, with 13 weeks for primary caregivers and 2 weeks for secondary caregivers. Staff can also take paid leave at half-rate allowing a primary caregiver to be paid for 6 months.
We also have some great corporate benefits including access to discounted legal services for wills, discounted private health insurance and novated vehicle leases for all staff.
A space for opportunity and growth
We make sure that guidance and support are always available, whether it be from Principals or other senior staff. Every staff member has a Responsible Principal, who they meet with on a regular basis to help with development.
With day-to-day ownership of files, lawyers are supported to balance practical experience with valued oversight. Client interactions are not limited to senior lawyers. We’re proud of our team and we want clients to know who’s working for them.
Secondments help clients deal with staffing challenges, but also give our lawyers a better understanding of a client’s business and commercial objectives. We believe this is essential to the delivery of effective legal solutions.
Our commitment to diversity and culture
Page Seager is committed to fostering a workplace that is welcoming and inclusive. We celebrate one other’s differences, knowing that a diversity of backgrounds, sexual orientations, gender identities and ages expands and deepens our perspectives.
We foster a thriving culture, with Friday night drinks, staff morning teas and casual Fridays. Our social committee host activities and events throughout the year, allowing you to get to know everyone who calls Page Seager home.

About Page Seager
Page Seager delivers innovative, high-quality legal solutions that add value to our clients’ objectives. We achieve this by focusing on our core areas of expertise and by recruiting and developing outstanding people.

- Property, Planning & Environment
- Workers Compensation

We value excellent communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work effectively as a member of a team. Our Insurance team operates in a fast-paced environment with competing demands, so strong organisational and time management skills are essential.
Your responsibilities will include answering and managing incoming calls, diary management, file management, preparation of correspondence, court documents and briefs of evidence, preparing bills, and providing day-to-day administrative support.

Graduate positions
Page Seager offers Graduate positions to university students both through the Summer Clerkship Program and outside of the program. We take a truly flexible approach where some Graduate positions may be offered to students still at university and others may be offered once you have graduated and started Legal Practice.
Life as a Graduate working at Page Seager is very different to many other law firms. We offer benefits such:
- Realistic expectations in relation to workloads and financial performance, coupled with highly competitive remuneration and access to a performance bonus scheme.
- A true open-door policy, whether it be with Principals or other senior staff.
- Having day-to-day ownership over files but also the necessary level of support so that there is the right balance between gaining practical experience and oversight.
- Truly flexible working arrangements where many of our staff don’t work normal working hours and regularly working from home is the norm.
- A merit-based promotions policy with clear guidelines and criteria to help you aim for your next promotion.
- Socially, we have morning teas, Friday night drinks, casual dress days and you can be a member of our social club that runs a number of fun activities throughout the year.
If you want to join a progressive firm as a Graduate lawyer, please contact Deirdre Boxall, our Human Resources Coordinator at [email protected].
Winter & Summer Clerkship Programs
Page Seager has been proud to offer a Clerkship Program to UTAS students for many years now. Traditionally, this program is offered during the university summer break. This year, Page Seager would like law students to have the option of completing a Clerkship during the winter break, and to that end, we will offer both a paid Winter and Summer Clerkship program in 2026.
What to expect
Our Clerkship program will give you a glimpse of practising law in a large commercial law firm. You will spend three weeks rotating through each area of expertise, gaining insight into the areas of law we practice at Page Seager.
During the Clerkship you can expect to do a variety of things, both in and out of the office. Our program is structured so Clerks can learn through a combination of hands-on experience, information sessions, training and observation. It is anticipated that Clerks will be exposed to client meetings, observe court proceedings, conduct legal research, draft correspondence and court documents, develop technical skills, use technology and research resources and have access to a range of lawyers from junior through to Principals.
Mentorship and support
Each Clerk is paired with a buddy who will support and guide you through the program. Each practice area has a contact person who is responsible for sourcing work for you and each piece of work will include feedback.
Who are we looking for
We are looking for law students in their penultimate or final year who are intelligent, motivated, energetic people interested in pursuing a legal career in Tasmania. While your academic achievements are important to us, we also value different life experiences and interests.
What comes after a clerkship
Page Seager has a Graduate Program and we often select our Graduates from the Clerkship pool.
What are the benefits of working at Page Seager
Page Seager offers career progression opportunities, genuinely flexible and alternative work arrangements, 13 weeks paid parental leave, realistic expectations in relation to workloads and financial performance, access to a performance bonus scheme, a merit-based promotions policy and has a great workplace culture which, coupled with top quality work and clients, makes us a sought-after firm.
