He said Gunn’s extensive experience at both Deloitte and New Zealand Post, where she was commercial manager for more than eight years, will be a “great asset” to Chapman Tripp.
“It is an honour to accept a position with New Zealand’s leading law firm and I am excited for the challenges and opportunities it will bring,” Gunn said. “I am looking forward to contributing to the ongoing success of one of the country’s most innovative and well-regarded legal firms.”
The appointment comes at a time of exciting change at the firm, which includes its move to Precinct Properties New Zealand’s new Commercial Bay development in Auckland next year, the firm said.
