Oceanrock Consulting

And the winner of the Sunday Times South Africa Best Medium Sized Company To Work For is... Oceanrock Consulting! Of the many highlights over the years, this is definitely one of the very best. When we first started Oceanrock Consulting we always wanted it to feel like a different place to work. More than 8 years later, I think the culture that we have created is rare and extremely special. I couldn't be more proud. A huge thank you to our leadership team for setting the tone and making our business such an great place to work - to Julia Walford, Peter Waller Michael Benz CA(SA), Abigail van der Merwe CA(SA) and Christian Bestel. And to everyone in our team for taking ownership and being up for the challenge - it is all of you that make our environment such a positive one. Finally, a shout out to all of our alumni who have joined us on our journey to date and played their part in laying the foundations. You know who you are. Here's to enabling our people to fulfill their potential and providing a platform for South African talent to compete on a global stage 🥂

London, we’re back! After several productive meetings and counting, it's been inspiring to reconnect with the vibrant energy of this remarkable city. As the summer months fade and we gear up for the busy season ahead, there’s an undeniable will to make things. Despite a slower M&A market and predictions pointing to 2025 as the turning point, it feels more like a shift—a chance for all of us to adapt, pivot, and evolve in a changing business landscape. Capital is essential for growth, and thankfully, there’s no shortage of it! One thing is clear: the importance of strong relationships in today’s world remains undeniable, and I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be here. Onwards and upwards! #Strongrelationships #UKInvestments #Pulsecheck #LetsGo Oceanrock Consulting
