Career

Alex is a senior associate in Bird & Bird's Privacy and Data Protection Group in London, he works with a variety of organisations on their data and privacy matters, with a particular focus on AI.

His experience covers all aspects of information law: from the GDPR, to ePrivacy and Freedom of Information. He enjoys finding practical solutions to difficult questions: be that building a data protection compliance programme within a difficult culture, advising on grey spaces like on-device processing and biometrics, or just finding a calm way to manage stressful moments such as security incidents.

He works with all kinds of organisations, but has a particular interest in matters involving AI and new technologies. He advises both AI users and AI developers and has an understanding of both the technical complexities and the developing regulatory landscape which allows him to navigate clients through difficult territory.

Separately, he has particular experience working on HR data and employment-adjacent privacy matters; such as recruitment, investigations, and (most recently) novel questions posed by the Coronavirus pandemic.

Before joining Bird & Bird, he spent over six years at another private practice firm, where he advised companies, public sector organisations, and international NGOs on data and privacy.
