I loved being in chambers, but life moves on and sometimes one has to embrace change. When I came back to work after a short career break, my family circumstances meant that it made much more sense to go in-house. It’s been a good challenge for me to learn a different way of working, and also a refreshing eye-opener to see things from the other side of the mysterious veil that usually separates us from solicitors. Oracle offered me a fantastic opportunity to get into in an area of law that I’d otherwise never have dreamed of being involved with, so choosing to say “yes” was the easy part.
