Burges Salmon LLP brochure 2024/25

between EDF and a few universities, is nearing completion, and I spend some time checking it is in order before organising the DocuSign. 1:00pm: As it is a sunny day I suggest lunching in the courtyard, so a few of us head downstairs and grab cheesy baked potatoes from the cafeteria, and talk about our weekend plans. 2:00pm: Once back at my desk, I dial into a call with EDF's Technical Director to discuss an NDA I am currently drafting for him. We discuss the draft and his comments, and I create an action plan to amend the NDA and send him the final version later that week. 2:30pm: After the call, I start getting documents printed and signposted for a 3pm meeting with an EDF director to get two leases signed. The leases relate to land at one of EDF's nuclear stations, and I have been communicating with EDF's estate agents to get these executed and sent to the counterparties. 3:00pm: I walk to the director's office, which is only a few metres away from mine, and engage in small talk before talking him through the documents and what they each

relate to. After getting these signed, I make my way to my desk and get the leases scanned and saved into EDF's system. 3:45pm: I join my supervisor for a coffee and we talk about an exciting new project I will be helping him on, to write an advice note for EDF's Nuclear Decommissioning team. 4:00pm: At my desk with a warm oat flat white, I start reading relevant legislation to prepare my advice for the note. I conduct a bit of research on PLC, and when I am stuck on a specific issue, I ask my supervisor for some clarity and assistance - he is luckily more than happy to help! 5:00 pm: I spend some time updating my fresh unity entries for the past week, and check my Burges Salmon emails and teams inbox. 5:15pm: I create my to-do list for tomorrow, shut down my laptops and pack my bag. I say goodbye to my supervisor and the rest of the team, and go to my taxi waiting outside the office. I make my way to my train, and start texting my flatmates about our evening plans, content in the knowledge I won't be receiving any work-related emails until the morning.
