Jodie Hill is Founder and Managing Partner, Thrive Law. A neurodivergent solicitor, consultant, qualified coach and trainer, author and campaigner. Jodie is passionate about employment law, mental health and wellbeing and neurodiversity.
A qualified barrister initially called to the Bar by The Honourable Society of the Inner Temple in 2010, Jodie then cross-qualified to become a solicitor in 2013. Her mental breakdown in 2017, which Jodie now describes as her “mental breakthrough”, led her to establish Thrive Law in 2018. It was the first law firm in the UK founded with wellbeing and mental health at its heart.
Today, Thrive Law, headquartered in Leeds with teams in London and the Southwest, provides employment law support to employees and employers, as well as outsourced HR and employment law support, training, coaching and consultancy to businesses, nationally and internationally.
Mental health, wellbeing and neurodiversity underpin everything Thrive Law does. In addition to being managing partner of Thrive Law, Jodie is also an active member of the Employment Law Committee at The Law Society, as well as chair of This is Me Yorkshire, a mental health campaign focused on storytelling.
Jodie regularly carries out one-to-one and group training programmes and coaching focused on the workplace, covering key employment law and HR topics, all with the aim of developing progressive leaders and harnessing the power of people within organisations. She is also a qualified coach, having achieved the ILM Level 3 Award in Effective Coaching.
