Emma is a Senior Legal Designer – her background as a lawyer helps her to understand the issues clients are facing because she’s probably faced them all herself! She helps clients understand where the problem is that needs fixing if they can’t see it clearly from within the mire and articulate the problem they want to solve. Emma also helps them to see the possibilities for how things could be done and decide what “good” would look like for the legal team and for the business. She then works with others in SYKE to find and design the right solution.
Emma is based in Cheshire, UK.
Law degree, a year doing other things eg teaching English in Cairo and deployed with the British Army in Bosni. Then the usual route of law school, training contract and worked as a solicitor in private practice in London, Paris and Dubai.
I did in-house work with Eli Lilley (pharma), TDG/Norbert Dentressangle (logistics & GC for Overseas division) & Unilever (supply chain and GC for home care division). I then transitioned to being an independent consultant providing legal support, strategic guidance and (via SYKE) legal tech expertise.
Liberal, people are able to put themselves forward and shine
Brilliant talent. I shouldn’t be surprised but am often by what people can produce.
