What is your favourite thing to do in your free time?
How did you get to where you are today?
contributing to a culture of continuous learning, is incredibly refreshing. The fact that Michelmores named RollOn Friday’s ‘Best Law Firm to Work At’ 2025 speaks for itself! What part of early careers recruitment are you most looking forward to getting involved in? I love to see candidates succeed! There is nothing more rewarding than watching someone grow in confidence, secure a role they’re excited about, and begin their career journey. I am especially looking forward to creating tailored training and development opportunities, across the programmes Michelmores offer, that support individuals and unlock their potential.
You’ll often find me at a yoga or hot mat Pilates class – ideally followed by an iced vanilla coffee and sweet treat! Being half Cornish, weekends often mean beach walks with family, friends, and furry companions. Given what you know now, what advice would you give your younger self? Change is good. Even if it doesn’t feel like it at the time, every new experience brings growth. You will always learn something valuable about yourself which will build confidence, resilience, and shape your future in ways you never expected. What advice would you give anyone applying to a role at Michelmores? When applying to a role at Michelmores, we want to see what makes you unique. Be curious, be proactive, but most importantly, be yourself! Ask thoughtful questions and take initiative. Being true to yourself is the best way to find a role that’s right for you.
After completing a BSc in Management with Marketing at the University of Exeter, I joined a two-year Operational Management Graduate Programme. During this time, I had the opportunity to work within a large HR team, focusing on early talent recruitment and development projects. This experience marked the beginning of my passion for supporting people at the start of their careers and gave me great insight to the world of people development. Having started my own career journey through a structured programme, I’m passionate about designing and delivering early careers initiatives that equip individuals with skills and confidence to thrive. Helping people to grow and succeed is what motivates me.
What is your proudest career moment?
One of my proudest moments has been seeing the impact of early careers programmes I’ve helped shape. Knowing that the specialised training, networking opportunities, upskilling events, and support I’ve provided has set individuals on a successful path – and that this work has been externally recognised – is incredibly fulfilling. Proud moments like these are the best.
Why did you decide to apply to Michelmores?
I really wanted to work somewhere that embraces change and creativity, and Michelmores’ commitment to innovation, collaboration, and people development, really stood out to me. Being part of a team that values individuality and invests in its people, pro-actively
