Background

About Clare Dengate Thrush

I help professional services, legal, and financial services organisations unlock growth by combining deep industry expertise with proven SaaS go-to-market strategies.With over a decade in business development, sales leadership, and GTM execution, I’ve worked across multiple industries - but my sweet spot lies at the intersection of legal expertise and technology innovation.I began my career as a barrister and solicitor in New Zealand in 2013, later moving to Australia and being admitted to the NSW Bar. My legal background gives me a unique edge: I understand the regulatory, commercial, and operational challenges professional services face, and how the right technology can solve them.In the last ten + years, I’ve helped legal tech companies expand market share, launch new products, and accelerate revenue growth. I specialise in: • SaaS sales & business development • GTM strategy & execution • Alliance & partner relationship management • Legal tech, fintech, & professional services marketsI believe technology should be more than a tool, it should empower people to work smarter, reduce costs, improve outcomes, and focus on what matters most.Bridging the gap between product potential and market adoption, while keeping relationships at the heart of business, that’s where I thrive.
