Henk van Rooijen

An ambitious, hardworking, and well organised law graduate, from the University of Law, looking to start a legal career in London. A multilingual individual possessing the ability to communicate effectively, with well calibrated social skills, who thrives in international environments. An experienced team player who values collaborative achievements, aspiring to develop academic written and analytical skills at the professional level.

I possess excellent interpersonal skills, enabling me to build strong relationships with clients and colleagues. I am most efficient in collaborative environments and appreciate the importance of teamwork in achieving successful outcomes for clients. Thus, respecting that every individual brings particular skills to the table in pursuing collaborative achievements is second nature to me, and is something that I am particularly keen to be a part of at a professional level. As a trilingual person, I have gained extra sensibility, expertise and insight into other cultures. This will enable me to work on a variety of deals in a cross border environment and be an asset in working towards completion of the deal with a wide range of clientele.
