Work & experience

Provided by Alder

Discretion is at the heart of what Alder does, so the firm rarely discusses the matters it handles. It supports clients through their most sensitive, career-defining moments, when an organisation's future, and often a leader's, hangs in the balance: safeguarding incidents, regulatory investigations, disputes, leadership and governance crises, and major change. Alder's experience spans education, healthcare, financial services, faith, charity, professional services, energy and infrastructure.
