SHAUN JOE

Legal Associate | Corporate Law & Contract Management
Bengaluru

Summary

Highly driven and results-oriented legal professional with over two years of experience working with UK-based law firm and company, specializing in corporate law, contracts, and regulatory compliance. Holding an LLM from the University of Glasgow, I bring a strong academic foundation and practical insight into the intricacies of corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions, and commercial contract management.

As a Contracts Coordinator at Agincare, I led transformative initiatives, including securing £80k in digital funding grants and streamlining contract management processes to improve operational efficiency. I also played a pivotal role in M&A due diligence, dispute resolution, and risk mitigation. In my current role as an Immigration Paralegal in the UK, I deliver precise legal support across a broad spectrum of immigration matters, consistently ensuring regulatory compliance and high client satisfaction.

With a strong command of legal drafting, research, and negotiation, I am passionate about contributing to corporate legal teams where strategic thinking and meticulous execution drive business outcomes. I am now actively seeking opportunities in corporate and commercial law where I can apply my skills and further develop as a legal professional.
