Grace Moore joined the Volunteering Hawkes Bay Board as a Trustee in 2022, after relocating to Hawkes Bay from Christchurch.
Grace has a Bachelor of Laws and a Bachelor of Arts in Classics and Philosophy from the University of Canterbury. She was admitted as a Barrister and Solicitor in 2017. She initially gained a wide grounding in general legal practice for two law firms in Christchurch and now practices as a specialist employment lawyer. Her work primarily consists of assisting clients to prevent employment problems from arising and representing clients when employment relationships have broken down.
Outside of her 9-5, Grace is enjoying familiarising herself with all the beautiful outdoors that the Hawkes Bay has to offer. She also sits as a Trustee on the Board of the Brydie Lauder Charitable Trust, a charitable trust that contributes to paediatric neurology in the South Island, and is passionate about giving back to the community.
