Robert excels at cutting through complexity to get to the heart of an issue then working collaboratively with others to drive change. His commitment to business improvement is palpable and this, plus his change management skills, are a core strength. His real passion though is people and talent development. He commits to his team 100% and gives them the scope, skills, confidence and space to succeed. This extends to all in his circle and I have personally benefitted from his mentoring and calm demeanor in the midst of a crisis. He always treats people with respect and honestly. When he was my client he was the best CFO I dealt with by a big margin. Robert’s soft skills, coupled with his global financial acumen and governance experience would make him a welcome addition to any business leadership team. " and "Robert was my CFO when I ran the HR shared services for GBS at Rio Tinto. Robert is an excellent business and thought partner who always worked at driving better business outcomes. When I took over the role, Robert was initially instrumental in ensuring that we had all appropriate governance and risk mitigation structures in place. Once these fundamental requirements were under control Robert set about improving our financial and reporting systems and our customer interfaces. He was always available to check in with and have a good debate about changes to the business. He has excellent analytical and commercial skills and applies these in all facets of his work. As a leader Robert is a fabulous mentor and an inclusive leader who inspires others to go beyond what they think is personally possible. He is also a strong advocate for those who may not necessarily be on the radar of those that hold power. I thoroughly recommend Robert and definitely hope to work with him again. "
