As an experienced commercial contracts lawyer and negotiator, I have helped both supplier and customer-side clients to achieve their business goals. I’ve advised start-up platform businesses on business-to-business SaaS agreements and SLAs through to supporting household name corporates on their major multi-million pound outsourcing projects, including in heavily regulated sectors such as financial services, telecoms and utilities. I’ve gained a breadth of legal experience, including contract/consumer law, corporate law and governance, M&A, IP, AI/technology, Data Privacy/GDPR and dispute management & resolution.
Having held Head of Legal and GC roles, I also have a good understanding of how to create and maintain business value and how to balance this against managing legal risk and compliance, as well as being comfortable working with senior management, boards and key external stakeholders such as lenders, investors, shareholders and regulators.
That I am collaborative, balanced and approachable and that I help clients understand and weigh legal/regulatory or contractual risk against commercial and operational factors.
Having worked in a range of sectors and organisations, I’m able to identify opportunities and apply best practices in a way that is most suitable to a particular culture, organisation, project or team. I’m good at arriving in a new business and getting up-to-speed relatively quickly, to help support business teams deliver on their commercial goals and achieve good business outcomes in a relatively short timeframe.
