Linklaters has overhauled its international board, with partners electing seven new members to represent both regions and practice groups on the firm’s main oversight body.

Three of the changes are in London where corporate partner Charlie Jacobs, banking partner David Ereira and tax partner Lynne Walkington – who each held one of the two places held for London corporate; London finance & projects and London commercial respectively – stepped down from the board when the vote was confirmed last week (18 May).
