BPP Manchester’s head of law Anna Mee explains
Commercial awareness gets mentioned constantly in legal careers advice, yet many students struggle to define what it actually means in practice.
In this recording from Legal Cheek’s virtual careers event, held in partnership with BPP University Law School, Anna Mee, head of law at BPP Manchester, unpacks what commercial awareness really means and provides practical advice on how to develop it and show it in applications and interviews.
Mee, who was formerly a solicitor specialising in M&A, private equity and public company advisory work, also explores some of the key trends and issues shaping the legal sector and affecting law firms’ clients today.
Legal Cheek is running ‘The SQE series’ with BPP University Law School. The video of each session will be made available one month after each virtual event together with further FAQs arising from each session which SQE experts from BPP are answering.
