  • Supporting franchisees of a hotel portfolio by reporting on standard terms and preparing variations and extension agreements as well as negotiating and drafting franchise agreements; 
  • Working with a recruitment company in reviewing updating and modernising their terms and conditions for the supply of goods and services. This involved understanding standard precedents but also the frequency of use and the manner in which the client contracts;
