Ep.32/ Integrating A Successful Career With Parenthood
LISTEN NOW
Ever wondered what it’s like to be the first legal hire in a fast growing start-up? Well today’s guest will shed some more light on this.
In this episode of The Career Confidence Podcast, I speak to Kate Sherburn who is the Legal Beagle at Who Gives A Crap.
As the head of legal at a scale up, she advises on pretty much everything that gets thrown her way. She is creating the legal function from the ground up in a rapidly changing environment.
Working in a social enterprise that donates 50% of its profits to help build toilets to those in need means that sometimes matters have to be approached a little differently. This gives Kate a chance to stretch her imagination (and GIF searching skills) and the opportunity to think outside of the traditional legal box.
What’s even more impressive is that Kate has created a successful career whilst integrating and prioritising her young family.
In this episode Kate shares:
about her career and what led her to being head of legal at Who Gives A Crap
some wisdom on making the transition from private practice to In-house
how she integrates a successful career with parenthood
We talk about this and so much more. Without further ado, let's dive into today’s episode and meet kate.
