Michael Thompson is head of legal operations at ALDI SOUTH Group leading a team of four legal operations professionals and one operational risk manager. He and his team try to stay ahead of legislative and regulatory changes and makes the knowledge required for their work more readily available to the legal, contract management, and data protection teams. In his spare time he spends time with my family, works on dyi projects in home and garden and likes to read literary role playing games (litrpg) and fantasy novels.
