Hello I’m Steven…

WHY I LOVE WHAT I DO

Working in-house means being more than just a lawyer – you’re a trusted adviser and a key part of the business.

No two days are the same, and that’s what I enjoy most: the variety, pace and challenges that come with the role. I like working closely with people, building relationships and understanding what drives their business, and finding simple and practical solutions that meet their needs. I get enormous satisfaction from making a meaningful difference and helping to deliver positive outcomes.

THE EXPERIENCE I BRING

I am a senior lawyer with over 20 years’ experience, the majority of which in-house, across a range of legal competencies including M&A, commercial contracting, competition law, regulatory and compliance matters.

I was the lead lawyer at DHL for negotiating a 15 year contract with the UK Department of Health for the outsourcing of the NHS Supply Chain business, which saved over £300m for the NHS over its lifetime.

Over the years I advised on many aspects of DHL’s business both in the UK and internationally. From customer and supplier contracts and arrangements, competition law and other aspects of compliance, supporting various functions such as procurement, finance and treasury, and company secretarial and other governance requirements.

I supported investment into and/or development of various start-up and early stage businesses or products within the organisation and led numerous M&A transactions, from acquisitions, disposals and joint ventures both within the UK and globally and with varying degree of deal size.

I was an active member of various boards, senior leadership teams and practice groups.

WHEN I'M NOT WORKING

I am an avid sports fan, especially love cricket, football, F1 and Australian Rules, though these days more watching rather than playing, but have recently taken up pilates! I also enjoy cooking, reading, history and travel.

I live in Hertfordshire with my wife and three children, who always keep me busy, and I am also involved in my local community.
