Bonnie Barfield
Business and Legal Operations Trainee
About me
As a part of the September 2023 Business and Legal Operations Graduate (BLOG) intake, I am really excited to make the most of the next two years. I was planning on taking a law conversion course and following the traditional lawyer route, but there was always something holding me back. The NRF BLOG scheme is a culmination of all my previous law-adjacent work experience, skillset and goals, all wrapped up in one great opportunity. The broad nature of the scheme aligns well with my jack-of-all-trades personality, and I look forward to using this time to narrow my interests and see where I want to go with the next stages of my career.
From
Born in Lewisham, raised in Reading, UK.
Fun fact
I’ve tried pretty much every style of dance you can imagine, and you can always find me having a boogie at my desk while my brain is busy thinking.
Previously
Studied Spanish, Mandarin and Translation Studies at the University of Birmingham, with a year abroad in Barcelona and Granada.
Best part of the job
The people, culture and environment of the firm. Since my first day I’ve felt welcomed and encouraged to be myself. Everyone seems to genuinely appreciate your ideas and respect you as an individual. Thursday Drinks in the bar also doesn’t hurt.
