People Sebastian Hams
Sebastian brings a committed and focussed approach to deliver end-to-end solutions for clients that exceed expectations.

His empathetic, collaborative approach coupled with 20 years’ experience in restructuring and commerce, both within Australia and in the UK, is highly valued by his many long-term clients.

He has significant experience in aviation, agriculture, health and construction and has lead turnaround consultancy projects, including formal and informal interim CFO roles, strategic project management roles and reviews/implementation of turnaround and finance plans.

Sebastian acknowledges our work can be highly challenging to those clients ‘in the trenches’ with the KordaMentha team and he is very proud to have developed lasting relationships with those whom he has shared these experiences. Creating long-term sustainable businesses borne out of challenging situations is the key motivation for Sebastian.
