Her agility is her strong suit, having worked for ASX 200 companies and clients within both private and public sectors on a full spectrum of employment, industrial relations and work health and safety (WHS) matters.

“Employees are a company’s most valuable asset. I work with my clients through the life cycle of the employment relationship to achieve the best outcomes from a commercial, risk, reputational and human perspective.”

Brigid is known for her practical and approachable style. Brigid has extensive experience working with clients from a range of industries including technology, healthcare, telecommunications, professional services, retail and construction industries.
