Strong track record of advising on high‑risk and sensitive employee relations matters, with judgement and confidence to provide clear, pragmatic guidance.
Strong commercial awareness, understanding how employment law advice supports wider business objectives, and comfortable influencing and challenging at senior and executive level.
