Dan is an accomplished and well-rounded Corporate Advisor and Business Leader with 17 years of public and private M&A, capital markets and valuation experience.

​

Dan started his advisory career managing and negotiating trade sales and IPOs for mid-cap Australian businesses in a big 4 accounting firm. He joined Rothschild’s global equity markets team, where he raised capital for companies such as Telstra, AGL, BHP and Adsteam Marine. He later joined Grant Samuel Corporate Finance, where he led transaction teams on landmark M&A and capital raising transactions across a number of sectors, including media (Seven West Media, APN), real estate (Walker Corp, Goodman), industrial services (Coates, National Hire), utilities (Duet Group) and resources (Fortescue, Whitehaven and Excel Resources).

 

Dan has also spent 7 years in the private sector, where he built a leading NSW property services business and later sold it to Johns Lyng Group, a $2 billion ASX listed company. Through his time in the corporate sector, Dan has developed in-depth knowledge of business operations, strategic planning, financing growth through equity & debt raising and organisational management through the lens of a CEO, enabling him to bring a unique and hands-on perspective to his advisory approach.

 

Dan lives in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs with his wife and two teenage sons, and when he’s not working on his next transaction, you can find him supporting the Sydney Roosters, surfing, bushwalking and practising yoga.
