Reflecting on the promotions, firm managing director of Asia Kristian Robinson said: “The promotions recognise these individuals as having shown commitment and diligence in their roles and have subsequently reached significant milestones in their careers.”

“We value their substantial contribution to the firm and their team through strong practice management, business development, mentoring, training and technical excellence,” he said.
