Tim
Senior Attorney
London, England
My Job
"I help colleagues in our brand teams responsibly market their brands to the full potential. I'm also responsible for increasing awareness of and compliance with the legal environment within which our corporation operates."
My Motivation
"When I arrived at Brown-Forman I was immediately invited to immerse myself in the building of our brands. The opportunity to work at the very heart of the brand-building process keeps me coming back for more."
My Contribution
"Everything I do is aimed at making sure the brand teams have the right information about legal issues which might affect or inform their brand building activities. My brand team colleagues consider my input and advice and activate their plans accordingly."
What I love about Brown-Forman
"The ethos is to be collaborative and to contribute, and to have the confidence that all contributions are valuable. Brown-Forman is very simply a collective of very nice people."
My Environment
"Brown-Forman is a corporation with a global reach but each employee never seems that far from another - the environment is hugely dynamic. I am based in London, one of our international hubs, and colleagues literally fly in and out of the office at breakneck speed, always on their way to the next market meeting, always to get as close to our consumers as possible. There's a real buzz about the place."
Opportunity
"I've had the opportunity to integrate with commercial and brand colleagues in such a way that many attorneys never experience, and that continues to be both immensely challenging and richly rewarding. Working with the brand teams has allowed me incredible insight into how brands work and has given me the chance to contribute to the enjoyment of many thousands of consumers."
