Professional services group S&W has appointed Rosemary Prendecki and Andrew Robinson as partners, strengthening its transactions tax offering.
Prendecki joins from EY, where she served as a partner in the private capital transactions team, bringing extensive experience advising private equity investors, their portfolio companies and corporate sponsors, particularly across the mid-market.
Robinson joins from KPMG, where he was a partner in the deal advisory tax team. His experience spans private equity, financial services and corporate clients on transaction-related tax matters, including due diligence, structuring, divestments and reorganisations.
The firm said the appointments combined bring expertise in domestic and cross-border transactions, advising clients on acquisitions, divestments, restructuring, financing and exits while helping them manage risk and maximise value.
The appointment follows S&W’s continued investment in its deals and advisory capabilities, including the recent appointment of Paul Martin as partner and head of transaction services. Working alongside teams across transaction services, tax and corporate finance, Prendecki and Robinson will support an integrated advisory offering, helping clients navigate the full deal lifecycle from origin to exit while identifying opportunities to create value at each stage.
Rosemary Prendecki, partner at S&W, said: “I am delighted to be joining S&W to accelerate growth across our transactions tax offering. S&W is a trusted adviser, working with clients to help them navigate an increasingly complex deal environment. By combining our specialist tax expertise with practical application and joining together with S&W’s strong transaction services and corporate finance capabilities, we can offer a compelling, joined-up proposition for clients in the transaction and funds space.
Andrew Robinson, partner at S&W, said: “S&W has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality, joined-up advice to clients. I look forward to working with colleagues across the transactions tax, transactions services and corporate finance teams to further strengthen the firm’s transactions tax offering and help clients navigate complex transactions with confidence.”
Mark Webb, head of business tax at S&W, said: “Rosemary and Andrew are exceptional hires whose expertise further strengthens our business tax offering.
“Rosemary brings a wealth of experience advising private capital clients and a strong track record of helping grow transaction tax practices, while Andrew adds significant expertise across financial services and corporate transactions. Together they further strengthen our ability to provide integrated advice to clients across the deal lifecycle.”
