Background

​

I qualified as a solicitor in 1999, having studied law at the University of Sheffield and the College of Law, London. I completed my training in London at international law firm, Charles Russell (now Charles Russell Speechlys) and, on qualification, specialised in Private Client work. In 2006 I moved into the world of professional training, working for BPP for over 10 years. At BPP I was head of the professional development law and skills programmes for trainee and qualified lawyers and developed and led the law conversion programme for international lawyers. Following a successful decade at BPP, I accepted an associate professor position at Birmingham City University, where I was part of the senior management team for 3 years, developing and leading the Professional Law Master’s Programme.  I established my own training and coaching consultancy business, Munro Training, in January 2020 and continue to provide professional training and coaching to legal and other professionals who work in private practice, in-house and legal higher education.
