At Balmoral, we understand that business leaders sometimes need large-scale engagements, delivered by traditional consultancies, to address a change of direction, a major operational improvement, or the like. But we also understand that, much of the time, large consulting teams and their significant associated costs are not required. Instead, leaders need wise, informed, worldly, deeply experienced counsel – senior sounding boards – engaged over the longer-term and accessible when needed.

That is our specialty at Balmoral: providing CEOs, management teams, boards or investors with long-term, retained advice across matters of strategy, finance, M&A, business transformation, change management, technical operations and technology. Our teams can work on and execute projects, as traditional consultancies do, if a clear and real need arises; but we prefer to advise leaders over an extended period and certainly prefer to commence our client relationships in that way. We are flexible in the way we forge these relationships: we can work on retainer arrangements; through advisory boards; through success fees for results; or equity – depending on a client’s preference and circumstances.

Balmoral is led by two partners, with 50 years of experience at Tier 1 consultancies advising governments, companies and investors across six continents, on strategy, deals, business transformation, and operations. Their experience also includes a decade with an oil and gas major and a decade running a multi-continent alternative investment group. The two partners work directly with all their clients.

The company is headquartered in Australia with personnel also located across Asia, Europe and North America. Its diverse team of professionals includes former senior strategy consultants, private equity and venture capital investors, business structuring and tax experts, branding and communications specialists and a broad variety of technical, operations and technological partners.
