Our guest this week was Bea Berry, Risk & Compliance Advisor at Stevens & Bolton. Bea shared how she fell into risk and compliance, and we discussed whether you need to be qualified to succeed in this space (hint, you don’t!)

Bea explained how full-cycle project management brings a creative element to compliance, and it’s not always just about doing everything by the book - there’s a lot of creative thinking and problem-solving involved. We discussed how more importance is being placed on employee welfare and well-being in law firms, and how this is becoming part of the compliance team’s remit.
