Hi, I’m Zoe.
I am the Operations Team Leader for Best Wilson Buckley.
I joined Best Wilson Buckley mid-2023 fuelled by optimism and a genuine desire to play my part in helping our lawyers and legal support staff continue to provide exceptional levels of service to their clients. On any given day, my primary responsibilities include handling the operational and administrative aspects of our firm in collaboration with our Business Manager, Madeline Dowling. I share responsibility for various tasks that encompass administrative management, IT, human resources, client servicing, finance, and risk and compliance. By managing these aspects of the firms daily operations, our legal team is able to dedicate their attention to nurturing and supporting our clients.
Why do you enjoy working at Best Wilson Buckley Family Law?
I have gained widespread experience in various industries through my journey across Australia with my partner in the ADF. However, the time came when we decided to establish roots, and it was at that moment that BWB captivated me from our very first encounter. My primary goal was to collaborate with compassionate and authentic individuals, and BWB has surpassed all my expectations. I am humbled by the opportunity to be part of a team comprised of talented professionals who genuinely understand and embody the core principles of human connection.
