Jane began her working career as a private client attorney in the trusts and estates department of Appleby, Spurling & Kempe. In 1995, she assumed the position of Managing Director and Legal Counsel of St. George's Trust Company.

She left Bermuda in 2009 to live in Canada and returned to Bermuda in 2013 to resume her legal practice.
