What others say about us
Brendon is the kind of professional that other professionals all hope to meet and conduct business with. A man of clarity and experience, intellect delivered in the easy going manner we note from Australians but intellect with detail and depth that leaves the listener in no doubt that they are hearing the truth or a well thought through and considered assessment of the subject matter at hand.
I am always seeking those that are proactive as well as reactive and would steer strategy and risk management with the full benefit of the knowledge of what they witnessed through the rear view mirror.
The truly skilled see the obstacles and challenges that are coming down the track and have the good judgement to avoid those that are damaging, the management talent to dilute those that can be and the courage to see some as positive challenges that might benefit their business by differentiation and excellence.
Brendon is all of these things, and I am delighted to have had many years of the benefit of his time and wisdom.

I was fortunate enough to work with Brendon for nearly nine years while he was a Director and I was the CEO of the Brisbane North PHN and Metro North Brisbane Medicare Local. Brendon was the guy who would listen to everyone’s views – truly listen – and then, in his turn, make an offer. That offer would usually sum up and tie together the intent that he’d heard around the room, coupled with his incisive professional expertise… and from around the table, I would see the nods and know that he was spot on. Brendon has superb empathy and is an all-around nice guy.

Brendon is a dynamic and engaging leader who has a genuine enthusiasm for leadership and creating effective teams. Brendon is a really good person who is socially aware and recognises the value in creating inclusive and diverse workplaces. I really enjoyed working with Brendon, he championed continuous improvement at both an individual and company level and I know that I have benefitted greatly at both a personal and professional level from being part of his team.

Brendon was an active Non-Executive Director for Horizon Housing Company and provided strategic oversight of the activities of the organisation. Brendon brought great energy and engagement to every Board meeting and provided mentorship to the Executive team. Brendon’s strength was the ability to provide lateral thinking to problem solving and strategic planning.
Samantha Evans, Executive General Manager - Finance & Infrastructure, Racing Queensland
Brendon has the ability of taking a company from good to great. Brendon has managed to sustain the culture of the founding directors whilst undergoing significant growth, and creating the structure, systems and governance that would be the envy of any major corporate. Personally I think he is an all round good bloke who was a great work colleague and professional mentor.
Ross Turner, National Director, Professional Services
A strong leader with a focus on innovation and digital efficiency. I’d happily recommend Brendon.

I have worked closely with Brendon over the last few years and being in the Quality and Risk Management space, it has been comforting to know Brendon understands at both strategic and operational levels, the issues, risks and rewards associated with running a significant valuation practice. Brendon’s experience has provided him with a deep understanding of the valuation industry and it’s key drivers at all levels.
