Minster Law has appointed Jane Brodie as its new people director.
Brodie (pictured), who joined Wakefield-based Minster Law in February, reports to chief executive officer Shirley Woolham.
Minster Law’s new people director has spent her entire career in human resources and people development, starting with Saint-Gobain Quartz, then moving to Npower and Sage before joining Smith & Nephew to support their global manufacturing transformation strategy.
In 2017, she joined Equifax, supporting its UK and Ireland strategy alongside its wider, global digital transformation.
In her statement on her appointment, Brodie described Minister Law as an organisation with “a formidable reputation for investing in and developing colleagues to be the best that they can be”.
She said: “The business has a history of delivering innovation and exceptional client outcomes in a challenging sector and our colleagues are the most crucial element of that delivery. I am excited to be joining an organisation that is open to thinking differently about providing a nurturing and supportive environment to attract and retain the best talent.”
Woolham said: “I am delighted that Jane has chosen to join Minster Law as people director. Jane brings significant HR and leadership skills to the business, developed throughout her 20-year career in high-value, forward-thinking organisations.”
“Her skills and experience are an ideal fit for Minster Law. We hold ourselves to very high standards when it comes to our people, no more evident than in our recent Platinum reaccreditation from Investors in People. Jane will play a vital role in ensuring our colleague proposition and agenda remains at the forefront of what makes our business successful.”
