G+T names new COO
Gilbert + Tobin has appointed a chief operating officer after a long-serving C-level executive left the firm.
Sam Nickless (pictured) replaces Michael Boot, who had been the firm’s COO, CFO and finance manager for the past 15 years.
“Michael moved on to explore new opportunities internationally and is currently undertaking consulting engagements,” the firm said in a statement.
Mr Nickless was a partner at global management consulting firm McKinsey & Company for five years. He has also held executive roles at National Australia Bank, Aristocrat Leisure Limited and, more recently, real estate investment trust GPT Group.
G+T managing partner Danny Gilbert said Mr Nickless brings significant commercial and operational experience to the role.
