“It’s very rare to work with an adviser who has actually been in your shoes, owning the responsibility and understanding all the different forces that come into effect when a decision is made. Wayne has provided his commercial acumen and agility to Besra since 2008, and his services have been a critical element in our capital raising, transaction negotiation and compliance management. Industry and market knowledge is great, but it’s his real-world commercial experience, resilience and integrity that repeatedly impresses. How often can you do a deal on a handshake with complete confidence it will be adhered to without fault? That’s alone makes him a very rare resource these days.”

John Seton, Former CEO, Besra Gold Inc. (ASX:BEZ)

“I’ve been doing business with Wayne Johnson for over two decades on numerous and diverse commercial transactions and facilities. Each situation has required a willingness to find the preferred solution where none were apparent, and inevitably this has demanded a tenacity of commitment, resourcefulness and people skills that are harder to find these days than a nugget in Bendigo!
“During his time as a non-executive director of Greater Bendigo Gold, Wayne’s exhaustive knowledge of corporate governance, public company procedure and steadying influence, were invaluable.
“Wayne has proven to be personable, worldly in his commercial experience and incredibly astute in his commercial acumen.“

Ian Smith, Former Chairman, Farr Capital

“I completely trust Wayne’s commercial acumen to lead the negotiation for any transaction we enter. He’s extremely savvy and experienced commercially and thoroughly conversant with the legal and corporate governance requirements for public companies. I can trust Wayne and his team to get things done, take care of the details and do the right thing for all shareholders. Best of all, any enterprise he’s involved in is better for it – and you can’t say that about all corporate advisers!”
