Gazprom Energy Marketing & Trading

 

Identified as a ‘smart lawyer with a broad international perspective’ and a ‘rising star of the industry’, Jacqueline Hill has been the GC for the UK subsidiary of the Russian gas giant Gazprom since 2006 after moving from EDF Trading.

Hill started building the legal team from just two staff to over 30 today in legal and compliance globally. Going forward, she says that a key source of inspiration for her and her team is ensuring that the company is properly supported in developing strong relationships with its Russian parent while the Gazprom Group undergoes a significant restructure and faces a plethora of regulatory demands
