The traditional linear career path arguably no longer exists.

Claudia Roberts is currently a trainee solicitor with Mills & Reeves.

In this conversation, Claudia takes us through her career journey to date from graduating from a law undergraduate degree to starting her career outside of the law focusing on the education sector, before jumping into entrepreneurship and starting her own business, to coming back into legal sector completing her LPC whilst working as a buyer from Prima Fruit and in 2023 starting her traineeship with Mills & Reeves a decade after completing her undergraduate degree.

Throughout, Claudia provides her own experience and insight on how these different experiences continue to influence and help her as a lawyer.
