Ruby Sandhu

I am Ruby Sandhu, a  senior international lawyer, prior partner of international and city law practices with a global client base and network. As a consultant I work with Teams specialised  to provide advice from the space of a trusted advisor and beyond that of a prescriptive approach of the law. I am Chair of the Society of Mediators, and an accredited mediator where I teach and assess courses. I also enjoy teaching Sustainability and Business and Human Rights with an emerging discipline in Animal Law.

My unique offering

Doing the Right Thing is important to me as are Trust and Integrity in Business.

Engagement on:

• Conflict Zones
• Business and Human Rights
• Stakeholder Engagement
• Mediation and conflict Resolution

I work with a diverse range of clients including Governments, Multinationals, iNGOs, charities, individuals and HNW around the world. There is no such thing as a difficult problem. My work is to lead and implement on projects which work in frontier, emerging and developing markets and encompass Sustainability and Business and Human Rights. I have worked on impossible and difficult mandates requiring thinking outside of the box and I have brought in experience away from the usual organisational silos and built on my experience in international human rights law, corporate commercial law, mediation and sustainability to provide sustainable and comprehensive advice and solutions.

Countries that I have worked in

Eritrea, South Sudan, Russia, Venezuela, Nigeria, Singapore, Kazakhstan, Bulgaria, Brussels, Geneva, Italy, Germany, Norway, Denmark, India, Thailand, Pakistan, Cameroon.

Charity

I invest my time heavily in pro bono and charitable work including as an animal rights advocate. I am an active trustee, tutor and assessor of the Society of Mediators, prior Vice Chair of SIHRG and member of the Law Society of England & Wales Business and Human Rights Advisory Group and International UNICEF committees. I enjoy ultra sports, tennis, cycling and yoga.
