Co-heads of corporate advisory Costas Condoleon and Neil Pathak said that Mr Turner would bring valuable skills to the team.

“The prevalence and influence of superannuation funds on the Australian M&A landscape continues to grow, as we have seen first-hand on many deals,” they said.

“Phil’s experience and superannuation specialisation will allow us to deliver a more comprehensive offering to this significant and important sector and to the large super funds who are central to a lot of transactional activity. We are delighted to have Phil join us and to enhance our team in this way.”

Commenting on his appointment, Mr Turner said: “Clients trust G+T to handle some of the most complex transactions in Australia, as well as litigation and regulatory investigations.
