Lessons I Learned in Law
Building a vibrant career to General Counsel in the one business, with Francisca Comiche
In this episode of 'Lessons I Learned in Law', host Scott Brown speaks with Francisca Comiche, General Counsel at Rabobank.
In her current role at Rabobank (the 2nd largest Bank in the Netherlands), Francisca is responsible for a global legal function of over 400 people.
This is a far cry from her beginnings with the group. Francisca shares her journey of joining DLL (a Subsidiary of Rabobank) over 26 years ago as only the 2nd lawyer in the team.
During her 26 years, she has witnessed and driven significant change across the function. Her role has been constantly varied and where she has started to get itchy feet, she has sought out discomfort to keep herself challenged...this has been the key success to the lasting career at Rabobank.
We also discuss the importance of working internationally and hear how she has built the ability to connect the dots across jurisdictions.
This is a really interesting conversation with a top European General Counsel...don't miss out!
