Construction director advising on infrastructure and energy projects

I’m a Legal Director in our Construction team, specialising in non-contentious matters across infrastructure, energy and commercial development. I advise contractors, developers and public bodies on procurement strategy, contract negotiation and risk management. My experience includes JCT, NEC, ICE, GC Works, Alliance contracts and bespoke agreements.

Before joining Shoosmiths, I worked in-house at Carillion and RWE Renewables, and previously trained at Pinsent Masons. I’ve led legal input on billion-pound bids for HS2 and the Wales & Borders Rail Franchise, and advised on offshore wind farm projects, energy-from-waste facilities and hotel developments.

Clients value my collaborative approach and clear, task-based delivery—especially on complex, multi-stakeholder projects. I’m known for making the legal process feel structured, strategic and manageable.
