‘I think you need a policy that complies with the legal requirements but is also flexible enough to manage your employees and your talent.’

What should a company do to make flexible working arrangements available for their employees? How can employers and employees benefit from such arrangements?

Simon Barber shares his experience on this issue with our host, Louise Hvala. They also discuss moving from private practice to in-house legal counsel, what it takes to succeed in-house plus the benefits and challenges.

Simon is currently corporate counsel at the Veriu Group. The Veriu Group is a privately-owned Australian company which manages, operates and develops a portfolio of over 20 hotels in Australia under two brands, Veriu Hotels & Suites and Punthill Apartment Hotels.

Simon was legal counsel at Specsavers for almost 10 years prior to his employment at the Veriu Group.

“You can be a great salesman, but you’re only as good as the product, the work you produce.”

And how does a solicitor deliver a great product to their client?

Our host, Louise Hvala, speaks with Senad Dizdarevic about how he keeps his clients happy, and other issues, such as the challenges of building a legal practice, how he juggles raising a young family with work commitments and how to manage staff across various locations.

Senad is the principal solicitor at Ascot Solicitors, a legal practice that is changing the perception of suburban practices. Senad established Ascot Solicitors in 2011, building it up from a single desk at his mother’s conveyancing office to a thriving practice operating in four different locations around Melbourne.
