Business and Legal Operations Graduate

About me

I joined NRF Transform’s Business and Legal Operations Graduate Scheme in September 2025, drawn by the opportunity to be at the intersection of innovation and legal services. I studied Chemistry at the University of Oxford, where I spent my final year immersed in my master’s research project. Whilst I enjoyed the analytical nature of chemistry, I realised that my future lay beyond the lab.

I was eager to apply my scientific and problem-solving skillset in a dynamic environment that also offered the chance to explore a broad range of areas such as technology, AI, and project management. The BLOG scheme offered the ideal platform to do just that, providing exposure to diverse teams and the chance to contribute to transformative work across the firm.
