G+T poaches from KWM
Gilbert + Tobin has hired Sarah Turner as a corporate advisory partner in the firm’s Perth office.
Turner has advised on a number of high-profile transactions, including the Brambles PAITREO, various IAG capital raisings, the Spark Group restructure, the IAG takeover defence against QBE, and the attempted takeover of Qantas by Airline Partners Australia.
