The people – locally and internationally. The ability to be a part of a small family in London whilst being part of a much larger and incredibly accomplished global team.
I believe we are the best in-house team in EMEA. With our diverse work backgrounds and different networks and specialisms, we have an incredibly capable first-rate team that enjoys working on the most sought-after mandates in the region. When the going gets tough, the satisfaction of working with our incredible team gets me out of bed in the morning.
A satisfying challenge!
I thoroughly enjoy developing junior team members and managing our in-house associates’ progression. The recent promotion of one of our team associates to senior associate was definitely a highlight of my time thus far with MLA.
I have learnt (through my most successful recruitment colleagues at MLA) that a true love for learning— about people, about subject matters, about the types of relationships people value—is a non-negotiable in the industry. Being inquisitive lends itself to many professions, but none more so than recruitment, or being a lawyer.
I would like to think that I would have made it as a fashion designer! I’ve also always loved English literature, so I could have happily pursued a career in the arts. I never regret my choice of the law, however!
I can’t and have never been skiing before. I intend to tick that off my bucket list next!
