Grant Thornton has promoted four accountants to partner as it experiences continuing demand for mid-tier services.
The mid-year promotions, effective 1 July, include Kate Bonner (audit and assurance), Lisa Gibb (financial advisory), Ioly Kisin and Paul Carbone (private business tax and advisory).
Grant Thornton said the new partners were appointed in recognition of their expertise and service to clients as well as the continued demand for mid-tier services it was experiencing.
CEO Greg Keith said: “We are always so proud to welcome new Partners and look forward to the knowledge and enthusiasm they bring to their new roles.”
“Their fresh perspectives and innovative ideas are invaluable as we continue to grow and evolve. Their progression into the partnership demonstrates the career growth and opportunities we have internally at the firm.”
“Their dedication and strive for excellence not only enrich our firm’s legacy, but also ensure we deliver the highest quality client service.”

All four new partners have spent at least one decade at Grant Thornton, with Carbone and Bonner starting at the firm as graduates.
“I am excited and humbled to have been promoted to Partner – a journey that began from my days as a graduate – which is a testament to the growth and opportunities provided at the firm,” Carbone, who is based in Grant Thornton’s Adelaide office, said.
Gibb, based in Sydney, said her focus as the latest financial advisory partner would be increasing female representation in the insolvency industry.
“Having worked on a variety of large insolvency appointments during my 13 years at Grant Thornton, I have developed skills to help me deliver exceptional results to a variety of stakeholders,” Gibb said.
"With the support and guidance from my team and the broader financial advisory service line at Grant Thornton, I am excited to be stepping into the partnership, and am eager to increase our female leadership within the firm."
The mid-year promotions take Grant Thornton’s partner count to 175, with 10 coming in the past year.
Earlier this month, audit veteran Peter Glynn moved to the firm’s Melbourne office after spending almost two decades at Deloitte.
Melbourne audit chief Eric Passaris said Glynn’s experience advising businesses from ASX-listed companies to not-for-profits would be an “invaluable” asset.
“We’re delighted Peter has come on board. He brings a wealth of professional and industry-specific knowledge that will complement our Melbourne audit practice and help us to continue to support our people and our clients,” Passaris said.
