Commenting on this hire, Mills Oakley CEO John Nerurker said that the firm was committed to the growth of its market-leading workplace relations offering.
“Over the past two years we have diversified our workplace relations offering with the launch of a specialist work safety subteam and addition of new senior talent in several cities,” he said.
“In Rachael, we are gaining a new colleague who is particularly well regarded for her workers’ compensation expertise, in addition to her deep workplace relationships experience across a number of key sectors.”
Ms Sutton said that she was attracted to the firm’s “growing profile” in the workplace relations space.
