Renee Fielder

I am a seasoned legal professional with over 25 years of experience, including 20 years in the corporate sector and 13 years in executive leadership. My expertise lies predominantly in the Information Technology (IT) industry, where I have collaborated with leading IT service providers, catering to major public and private sector clients. I have extensive experience in commercial contracting, managing significant outsourcing agreements, overseeing acquisitions and disposals of over fifty strategic entities across various countries, and restructuring complex organisations while navigating South Africa’s unique business challenges.

I excel in managing legal affairs with a focus on business enablement, risk mitigation, and service efficiency. I am a natural leader who fosters collaboration across business functions, empowers teams, and ensures timely delivery of legal services. My persuasive communication style and ability to build strong relationships unite stakeholders, driving successful outcomes while maintaining good corporate governance.

Beyond IT, my commercial acumen is enriched by my tenure with a multinational petroleum brand and my personal entrepreneurial ventures. I am adept at negotiating robust contracts using my interpersonal skills, problem-solving abilities, and legal expertise. My achievements include forming a dynamic legal team with a proven track record in multicultural transformation and operational excellence.
