In January 2019 Natalie successfully gained a management role in Principia as the Head of Finance.

Alice wants to continue her career through the leadership and management route. Principia Law are helping her develop her skills in these areas.

Clare joined Principia in 2016 as a Pre-litigation paralegal. She had already gained her Law degree and LPC but had never worked in a law firm. Principia Law were aware that Clare’s ultimate goal was to gain a training contract and qualify as a Solicitor.
