“Sally Bird guided me through my own personal employment issues and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She was extremely knowledgeable, calm and made herself available at a moments notice. She supported me throughout the process and her experience was apparent. She is an excellent negotiator and also a lovely person to deal with. The wider Kuits team were also fantastic and operated like a well-oiled machine to deliver the best possible outcome.
