Profile:

I’m a Partner in Employment at Bird & Bird, as well as a Diversity Partner and part of the London Diversity & Inclusion Committee.

I advise on all aspects of employment law, with clients in a wide range of sectors including organisations in the IT sector, airlines, advertising, financial services and manufacturing, and I also act for executives. I’ve acted in a number of reported cases, including representing Jet2.com against BALPA in High Court and Court of Appeal cases on collective bargaining and the National Union of Mineworkers against Arthur Scargill in relation to his Barbican flat.

I have extensive experience in the discrimination field. I have written widely on topical employment law issues in the national press including The Times and have appeared on BBC News and on radio commenting on such topics. I’m recognised as a leading practitioner in Who’s Who Legal Employment and Labour 2019.

I’m actively involved in its wide ranging initiatives both in the UK and internationally, including its award winning social mobility and gender-based programmes. I also have three daughters and have worked in the past on a part-time basis for several years.
