About

I am part of the Employment team based in Cardiff. I work on a variety of advisory and contentious matters for employers. This typically includes advice on employment contracts and staff policies, performance management, grievance and disciplinary processes, termination of employment, individual and collective redundancies, as well as Employment Tribunal litigation. I also advise individuals on settlement agreements and other various employment matters.

I have been seconded for over a year to the EMEA Employee Relations team of an Australian global financial services group, which has given me some valuable insight into challenges and opportunities faced by in-house counsel in the financial services sector.
