Jessica makes technical work look logical and easy to navigate.
Jessica is great on really complex, technical aspects. She is able to navigate very complex shareholders and stakeholders and get us to the right result.
Jessica is an absolute star. She provides incredibly commercial, pragmatic advice and judgement, but also is technically very, very strong on insolvency. She can walk into a room and win them over.
