New York-based provider of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) advisory services, Berkshire Capital is expanding its presence in Australia with the appointment of a principal and executive director and a vice president to be based in Sydney.

Berkshire Capital Asia Pacific vice chairman, Ian Martin said Nelson Lam had been appointed as the firm’s principal and executive director, while former St George Bank Wealth Management staffer, Glenn Dunn had assumed the role of vice president.

“The addition of Nelson and Glenn will allow us to take on a broader array of opportunities and is very timely given the market developments we are seeing,” Martin said.

“[They] will help us build on the position that we have established to date.”

Lam, who most recently held the role of director – funds management with Chase Corporate Advisory has also held positions with Continuum Capital Management, Arkx Investment Management and H3 Global Advisors. He began his career as a business development manager (BDM) at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA).

Dunn will join Berkshire Capital from his position as head of finance at Ascalaon Capital Managers where he has worked since 2008. He previously held positions with GIO Asset Management and Nestlé-owned Alcon Laboratories.
