Addressing family dynamics, new shareholders, continued risk and compliance layers, team culture and development and bank navigation are all areas benefiting from his independent Chair role. Mark’s engagement in our business is high, we actively talk through issues and his phone is always on.”

“Our companies comprise commercial, rural and business assets. We initially engaged with Mark and 8pC 2 years ago to help me transition away from my day to day role and to support and advise me in embedding a better governance layer including succession planning. Mark’s independent thinking and advice was invaluable and his knowledge in all areas is very high. We continue to utilise Mark’s services on a regular basis.”
