About Kay
Kay graduated as a veterinary surgeon from Bristol University in 1988. She spent 25 years working in a variety of practices, during which time she developed a strong interest in how teams work and what motivates people.
She has worked alongside her partner James providing HR support to businesses for many years, and in 2014 left vet practice to focus full-time on their business Eight Legal. Eight Legal provides HR and employment law advice to SMEs, along with business consultancy to develop teams, communication, resilience and engagement.
She has recently completed an MSc in Organisational and Business Psychology with Liverpool University, gaining new insights into leadership, teams, change management and communication, which have been invaluable in Eight Legal’s business consultancy.
She retains a strong interest in the veterinary sector, particularly resilience, self-efficacy and well-being and how this impacts recruitment and retention in practice.

A highly capable business advisor. I have seen Kay operate, first hand and was impressed. I am sure she will make a superb NED.
