CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
What Is It Like
To Work With Jon?
I first met Jon in 1989. I got to know him very well as a colleague in several roles, beginning as a business associate, and now, 37 years later, as a business partner and family friend. Jon excels in connecting with people. As a mature business professional with integrity and impeccable character Jon always positively affects those he connects with.

I have known Jonathan for many years, and he has always been a pleasure to work with. His knowledge and expertise with various systems to help solve issues or assist with streamlining processes has been invaluable. I have always found him to have the highest integrity when it comes to his advice and recommendations, which will always be to the benefit of his clients. I highly recommend him.
Clinton Martin
Group Financial Manager, Coronation Fund Managers
Since meeting Jonathan eight years ago, he has consistently demonstrated strong industry knowledge and professionalism. He quickly became a trusted contact, providing valuable insight and going the extra mile to meet our needs. His ability to anticipate challenges and deliver timely, effective solutions has helped maintain the stability and efficiency of our operations. He is committed to client service, communicates clearly, responds promptly, and approaches issues with calm, solution-focused judgement. After launching his own business, he remained engaged and, when our needs evolved, leveraged his network to introduce the right partner to elevate our planning process.
Venette Malone
ex-CFO
I have known Jon for over 25 years. We first worked together managing client relationships in a software business, later within a large technology group, and now we are partnering again in his advisory practice. Jon consistently takes a strategic approach to business relationships. He focuses on the real client issue and ensures the right expertise is aligned to solve it. He brings clarity to complexity and earns trust quickly at senior levels. He has a strong instinct for connecting people and uncovering collaborative opportunities others may miss, creating value beyond the immediate brief. Jon is a natural encourager and a valuable strategic partner to any executive team. I recommend him without hesitation.
Christo Bredenkamp
ex-MD
I’ve known Jon since 2011 and have consistently been impressed by his ability to work effectively with executives and senior finance leaders. He has a natural ability to listen carefully, quickly identify opportunities for process improvement, and translate discussions into practical, value-driven outcomes. What truly sets Jon apart is his network and his ability to connect organisations with the right expertise at the right time. He brings measurable value in a short space of time and is someone I would highly recommend to any leadership team looking to improve how they operate.
