Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

We hope you can join us at an exclusive lunch for senior in-house lawyers at Ashurst's new Melbourne office. This roundtable event will feature guest speakers Amanda Wilson, Chief People Officer, and Ana Maros, P&C Advisor, of Melbourne Convention & Events Centre, and Linda Grace, Head of Ashurst Advance Reach.

Attracting and retaining staff is challenging at the best of times, and particularly during the ‘draft season’ we are in now. At this roundtable lunch, we’re going hear about MCEC’s retention strategy during Victoria's lockdowns and share stories of effective approaches to retaining and attracting the right in-house talent. Linda will also offer insights into ‘keeping the team together’, based on Ashurst Advance Reach's recent survey of over 100 legal consultants.

Seats at this event are limited. Please RSVP as soon as possible to confirm your place.
