Since the conference’s inception in 2007 it has grown significantly both in reputation and size and is now the largest event of its kind in North-east Scotland, and this year’s programme will include updates and insights from industry experts on a range of topical issues.

New for 2024, keynote speaker Sean Jones KC, of 11KBW, is “widely-regarded as one of the leading Employment lawyers in the UK”, having been instructed by and against some of the biggest employers in the country including Amazon, Easyjet, Tesco, HMRC, and the BBC, as well as a number of Premier League football clubs and other national sporting bodies.

Described “as clever as he is creative”, “astute and super bright” with “an encyclopedic knowledge of employment law” and “an extraordinary ability to present complex arguments simply”, Sean has “taken up residence in the Supreme Court on every employment case going” covering everything from equal pay and pension disputes through to dismissals, whistleblowing claims, restrictive covenant disputes, and industrial action cases.
