Senior Legal Counsel

GEMS Education is an education management institution which located in London,United Kingdom.

Corporate lawyer with background in economics – a trusted business partner due to focus and input on commercial and strategic issues to complement legal advice. From managing a small practice to being in-house counsel for one of the Middle East’s largest and fastest growing companies, I drive projects and transactions to completion, taking ownership of the entire matter, coordinating amongst teams, and executing tasks beyond my defined role. My experience includes managing investor relations, including a large private equity consortium, presenting to investment committees, taking the lead on large corporate transactions (acquisitions, joint ventures, and fund formation), together with general legal, strategic and commercial advice, predominantly in the Middle East, Africa and South East Asia.
