About

I'm a dual-qualified employment lawyer (England & Wales; Republic of Ireland) with a diverse range of experience across both jurisdictions and multiple sectors, in particular technology and pharmaceuticals.

I advise on all matters arising out of the employment relationship, including recruitment, dismissals, settlement agreements, policy reviews, and grievance and disciplinary procedures. I have advised on cutting-edge matters like the use of AI in recruitment and recent legislative developments in the UK and Ireland. I was previously seconded to a large global technology company and strive to make my advice as business-friendly and jargon-free as possible.

In addition to my general employment practice, I have a particular specialism in industrial relations and collective employment matters, including interactions with trade unions and European Works Councils.
