David H, Business Broker "John and I worked together in the M&A integration space.

His pragmatic leadership approach balanced with a strong customer focus always ensured the team moved forward in a way that minimised disruption to the acquired business. For example – we acquired a small company that we didn’t want to burden with our full suite of spending controls. John partnered with our key stakeholders to identify options then influenced internal treasury and Business Unit finance to design a process that enabled the company to continue operating with their existing set up while still giving us visibility to their spend and confidence in the process."
