Working within Travers Smith's central Knowledge Management team, Emily focuses on the internal storage, retrieval and dissemination of knowledge and information to maximise efficiency and consistency, and to support knowledge sharing.
Emily has strategic oversight of the firm's intranet and she plays a lead role in relation to firmwide information architecture and governance. She works closely with key stakeholders across the firm, including Risk & Compliance and both the Central and Legal Technology teams, to help deliver a co-ordinated approach to the introduction of new technologies and processes, with specific regard to how these might impact search and retrieval of knowledge and information, as well as the maintenance of a coherent system of records.
Emily's long experience at Travers Smith, both as a lawyer within the Dispute Resolution Department from 2002 and as their knowledge lawyer (from 2007 to 2018), has enabled her to develop a clear understanding of the needs of the business in relation to the way knowledge and information is retained and presented to the firm.
