Studied: Chemistry BSc at Durham University / Organic Chemistry MRes at UCL
My first seat was in Construction where I worked on many different project, ranging from large residential developments to EPC projects to small warehouse plots. This involved responsibilities such as marking up documents, preparing trackers, preparing contracts and researching points of law. My degree helped ensure I had the requisite transaction management capability through developing my organisational skills and it also developed my research skills which I used day-to-day.
My second seat was in Corporate where I worked on a large UK takeover. This involved responsibilities such as preparing summary notes, attending client calls, assisting with drafting novel clauses of transaction documents and preparing agendas of key milestone. My degree helped me ensure I had the necessary analysis skills and communication skills.
