Are you sick of hitting the ceiling? Do you want to shoot above the ceiling and reach the heights to be the Patent and Trade Mark Attorney you could be?
At Wynnes Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys, we’re not just offering another role, we’re offering a genuine career opportunity. One where your voice matters, your expertise is respected, and your career path is clear.
We’re searching for a Senior Patent and Trade Mark Attorney who is ready for more. More responsibility, more autonomy, and more opportunity to shape the future, both yours and ours. If you’re currently in a large firm feeling like just a number, or in a smaller firm with no real path forward, this could be the role you’ve been waiting for.
Why Wynnes?
Based in the riverside suburb of Bulimba, Wynnes is an established and trusted boutique IP firm that helps clients across Australia, New Zealand, and internationally protect their innovations. We pride ourselves on building long-standing client relationships and delivering advice with real commercial value.
But what truly sets us apart is how we support our people.
We don’t just say we value work-life balance, we live it. We don’t just talk about progression, we back it. And we don’t hold onto outdated hierarchies, we create genuine space for leadership and equity.
What You Can Expect
- Competitive salary starting at $140,000+
- Clear pathway to equity and partnership within the firm
- Autonomy to lead your own portfolio and client relationships
- Flexibility and work-life balance that’s actually respected
- A collaborative team culture that values your input and ideas
- A supportive environment where your success is shared and celebrated
The Opportunity
You will manage a diverse range of patent, trade mark and design matters across various industries and technologies. You’ll advise clients at a strategic level, help guide junior attorneys, and have real input in how the firm grows.
We want someone who’s not just experienced — but engaged, forward-thinking and ready to help shape what comes next.
What We’re Looking For
- Registered Patent and Trade Mark Attorney (Australia and New Zealand)
- Minimum 5 years’ experience in a private practice environment
- Strong technical background in engineering, biotech, software or similar
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- A confident, commercially-minded approach to client relationships
