Our Raison d'être
Bridging Experience with Innovation
Daniel Wellington and Joao (John) Lourenco met at University while reading for the same degree towards careers as Chartered Accountants. While our paths took different directions in the professional and business spheres, these rejoined upon retirement. With much still to offer, we will avail to our clients our extensive experience and access to our network of associates in the different but complementary fields spanning our respective careers.
We wondered about the delicate balance between the loss to economies of enormously experienced and skilled 'grey-hair' individuals going into retirement and the need for economies to remain sustainable by systematically renewing those very same skill-sets in new hires.
Greydek Business Solutions aims to breach this seemingly unanswerable conundrum by offering a bridge between the two in numerous innovative and effective ways.
Joao Lourenco
Joao is a Chartered Accountant and has pursued his career exclusively in the professional services arena specialising in Tax for over 20 years. A Big 4 partner throughout, Joao moved towards retirement in a development role with a Tier 2 professional firm developing its network in the EMEA region. Joao worked extensively throughout Africa and Southern Europe in his many roles. An EMCC certified Business Coach, Joao also has extensive experience as a business coach and mentor.
Daniel Wellington
Daniel is a Chartered Accountant entering the commercial world post-qualification where he has had 35 years of varied experience with listed global corporations and medium to large private equity and family-led businesses in both financial and commercial roles. Latterly, Daniel has successfully led and managed the transition of owner-managed businesses to private equity-owned corporations. Daniel has extensive leadership experience in the petroleum, renewable energy, agriculture, mining, insurance and retail sectors. This allows us to offer clients a diversity of insights both on the national and global stage.
