What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead legal ops and privacy initiatives, automate workflows, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow in legal tech and compliance responsibility.

I am a Legal Operations professional with 5+ years' experience in data privacy, compliance and process improvement across global businesses. I have driven operational efficiencies by automating processes, building SharePoint solutions, and supporting GDPR compliance through ROPAs, DPIAs and policy drafting.

I have supported legal teams at Chanel, Bumble and Octopus across corporate governance, contract review, DSAR management and legal tech adoption (iManage, PowerApps, Diligent). I combine hands-on paralegal and compliance work with stakeholder management and training to deliver measurable outcomes.
