Salter has extensive experience of leading teams engaged in technical and commercial due diligence on acquisition opportunities, independent expert roles, independent reserves/valuation reporting, development planning, and decision analysis in the Asia-Pacific region, Europe, Middle East and Africa.

Salter says of the move: “The Perth office has established a position as the Asia Pacific region’s leading consultant, and we see that growth potential reflected in Europe and the Middle East through the hard work being done in the London office. I am delighted to have the opportunity to be back with the team here, and we anticipate further growth over the next few years.”
