Gilbert + Tobin has appointed a new partner to bolster their corporate M&A team in Melbourne, effective 1 August 2020.
Gilbert + Tobin has welcomed partner Susannah Macknay to the corporate M&A team in Melbourne.
“We are excited that a lawyer of Susannah’s calibre has chosen to join G+T,” Neil Pathak, co-head of the M&A/corporate group, commented.
“Susannah’s commercial and technical excellence and dedication to clients will only strengthen our [M&A] team.”
Ms Macknay returns to Australia from the London office of Slaughter and May, one of the world’s pre-eminent corporate law firms. Ms Macknay had been a partner at Slaughter and May from 2014.
Her practice focuses on public and private M&A, with particular experience in cross-border transactions and the financial services and telecommunications sectors.
Ms Macknay’s recent experience includes advising Vodafone Group plc on the €19 billion acquisition of Liberty Global’s businesses in Germany and CEE, the largest telecommunications deal in Europe for a decade, and advising Prudential plc on the demerger of M&G plc to create two FTSE 100 companies.
In joining the G+T Melbourne team, Ms Macknay said she was delighted to be joining G+T’s market-leading M&A team in Australia.
“I look forward to bringing my international experience to advising clients on their most significant corporate transactions,” she said.
