About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Draft, review and negotiate Vow's commercial contracts, including NDAs, supply agreements, material transfer agreements (MTAs), and customer agreements with restaurants and commercial partners.
- Support Vow's regulatory work as we pursue product approvals in new markets, advising on the legal aspects of regulatory submissions and market entry.
- Manage Vow's trade mark portfolio and IP matters, liaising with our external IP advisers.
- Maintain and apply Vow's contract templates and legal playbook, keeping documents such as the tasting waiver current and fit for purpose.
- Act as the first point of contact for day-to-day legal and commercial questions from across the business, resolving what you can and referring specialist or complex matters to external counsel.
- Be a visible, accessible legal resource, so people across Vow know where to go for support.
- Keep legal matters organised and tracked, and provide regular updates on the status of key work to the business.
- Provide ad hoc legal support on corporate and commercial matters as they arise.
- Participate in and contribute to the Vow Work Health and Safety Committee (WHSC) in line with its charter.
Requirements
What you’ll need- Admitted to practise law in Australia, with a current practising certificate (or eligible to obtain one).
- 5+ years' post-qualification experience (PQE), gained in house, in private practice, or a combination of both.
- Strong commercial contracts capability: drafting, reviewing and negotiating NDAs, supply agreements, material transfer agreements (MTAs), and customer and commercial agreements.
- Comfortable self-managing a varied workload and knowing when to escalate specialist matters to external counsel.
- A pragmatic, commercial approach. You translate legal risk into clear, practical advice that helps the business move, not just a list of what could go wrong.
- Exposure to regulatory work is an advantage, ideally in food, health, biotech, or another regulated environment, particularly around product approvals and market entry.
- Familiarity with IP and trade mark management, including working with external IP advisers.
- Excellent organisation and prioritisation.
- Strong communication and stakeholder skills. You can explain risks and trade-offs clearly to non-lawyers at all levels of the business.
- Comfortable with ambiguity and a bias to action. You make sensible decisions with incomplete information and iterate.

- An awesome converted warehouse "campus" in Alexandria. Vow operates a manufacturing and office space in Alexandria, complete with a fit-for-purpose lab, shower and towel service, bike rack, free snacks, and plenty of collaboration and chill zones.
