About

Claire Lyons joined Otter Products, the mobile technology protective case specialist company, in early 2013. Initially as a corporate counsel, she took on the general counsel position for Europe, Middle East and Africa in late-2015. In January 2019, she also took on the role of general counsel for Asia Pacific and now sits on the executive team of both entities as general counsel. Lyons highlights that she, was ‘delighted to be given the opportunity to act as general counsel and join the executive team representing two international regions and to have the opportunity to do so from Cork, Ireland where previously the expectation would be that a global role of this nature would be based in the US. Also, working for an organisation that has an ethos of doing the right things, the right way and has a very evolved vision of their general counsel not only as an adviser but a partner has had a substantial impact on how I view my role and how the legal team goes about providing legal services to our internal clients’. At Otter Products, the legal function plays an integral role, not only in risk management but also in assisting to drive strategic business growth, which Lyons claims has shaped his perspective on what in-house counsel can offer to a business in a significant way.
