Jenine Briggs | Juno Legal | Lawyer

Capability

I thrive in collaborative environments, where I can contribute pragmatic, solution focused commercial advice that not only meets immediate needs but also supports long-term sustainability and relationship-building.  Earlier in my career I established and led the corporate legal team at Suncorp New Zealand, building the function from the ground up and where I played a key role in several strategic divestments, joint ventures and acquisitions.  As a Juno lawyer, I bring extensive in-house commercial and corporate legal experience, with a particular focus in the financial services industry and a keen interest in climate related areas.
