From 1 August, Stuart Fuller will take over as the big four's new global head of legal services.
In congratulating Mr Fuller, Gary Wingrove, CEO at KPMG Australia said: “Stuart has outstanding international experience, understands the demands of cross-border transactions and the pressures of operating in a global environment but also brings the local view from his excellent track record in both the Australian and Asia-Pacific legal and business markets."
The appointment of Mr Fuller sees Kate Marshall, a partner in KPMG Law in Australia, step up as the new head of KPMG Law in Australia, also effective 1 August.
“With the appointment of Kate Marshall, we have a leader who is an expert in the key areas of emerging technologies, privacy compliance, and digital strategy," Mr Wingrove said.
"In addition, Kate’s data breach experience, and her recent work with KPMG’s forensic and cyber teams make her ideally suited to drive growth in a time when business is looking for strong guidance in these key areas.”
