Victoria Jardine

Partner

Partner in the governance, funding and corporate team

My role

I am a partner and I lead our housing corporate and governance team that delivers corporate, governance, regulatory and charity law advice to social landlords (for-profit and not-for-profit, charities, and private and social businesses).

I work particularly closely with boards and executive teams on their strategy and direction. I also deliver major projects such as group structures and mergers, corporate and funding structuring for business growth, governance reviews, regulatory compliance, joint ventures and collaborations between organisations.

My experience

I spent the first years of my career as a corporate lawyer specialising in private equity. Since joining Anthony Collins in 2004, I’ve used my corporate and commercial expertise and experience to support our housing and third-sector clients across a wide range of projects including strategy and direction, governance reviews, joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions and group structures.

I am ranked as an expert in social housing law in the Chambers and Partners legal directory and a leading individual in The Legal 500 legal directory.

‘Victoria Jardine is excellent – commercial and pragmatic while always keenly focused on achieving the right outcomes for her clients.’ 

“Victoria Jardine has developed notable expertise in social housing and charity law, leading the firm’s joint venture and due diligence work with registered providers”

The Legal 500, 2024

“She is pragmatic and commercial.” 

“Victoria has a great breadth and depth of legal knowledge. She also applies pragmatism to all her advice.”
