Saskia Bassett

Her previous role at the Greater Manchester Law Centre, where she worked in triage, providing critical advice on employment, benefits, housing, and public law, has equipped her with valuable tools to build-on during her training contract.

Saskia excels at immersing herself in the intricacies of client operations, understanding their goals and the challenges they face. Her strong problem-solving skills were a significant asset in her previous position with the construction and engineering team, where she continually enhanced her knowledge in this specialised field.

Saskia recently completed a secondment with Time Out, where she gained valuable experience in commercial law, including contract review, copyright claims and advising on day-to-day business operations. This exposure to in-house legal work has broadened her commercial awareness and strengthened her ability to deliver practical, business-focused advice.

She is now sitting in the employment, pensions and immigration team, continuing to develop as a well-rounded and versatile professional.
