Harry Hughes

Harry joined Carpmaels & Ransford as a Knowledge Paralegal in January 2025. Working closely with the Head of Knowledge and attorneys, he helps to implement the firm’s knowledge management strategy.

Harry studied at Imperial College London and earned a first-class master’s degree in engineering and the Dean’s List prize for exceptional academic performance. As a school leaver, Harry completed a one-year industrial placement at an energy provider, where he worked on safeguarding nuclear power plants by conducting boiler corrosion investigations.

At Imperial, Harry completed two independent research projects surrounding the application of austenitic stainless steels for nuclear storage and how titanium-cobalt binary alloys can alter mechanical properties. For over a year, he also worked for an R&D start-up in Oxford, where he advised Fortune 500 and disruptive start-up businesses on implementing 3D-printing processes to manufacture new products.

Outside of work, Harry enjoys playing tennis and going to the gym. He is also an avid plant keeper and regularly visits garden centres to add to his collection.
