She has managed a team of Fraud investigators within the NHS, which is one of the largest employers in the world, which has an un-quantified loss to fraud in-excess of 4 billion pounds (NZ$10.5 billion) per annum. Jane was responsible for heading investigations and developing training packages which were delivered to NHS staff at all levels to combat loss from fraudulent activity.

Jane has represented exploited children who were victims of child sex trafficking in an international case held in an Asian court. This empowered the children to tell their story to the judge which assisted the compelling evidence that lead to the trafficker’s convictions.
