Richard Lynn
Richard Lynn – Director, Business Development and International Operations

Market intelligence, innovative thinking, strategic insight…

Working within Mercor gives me the ability to be flexible and adapt quickly to changes in the marketplace and also to respond quickly to the needs of my clients. It also provides me with the support of a few very dedicated and committed professionals. When I’m pursuing value-adding opportunities for my clients, these are the qualities that enable me to meet, and at times exceed, my clients’ business goals. Like the rest of the team at Mercor, I firmly believe that in building strong teams and sustainable strategies, whether within a business, an alliance or a joint venture, the collaborative approach is always the most successful. I am primarily interested in developing long term clients and therefore I take pride in the work that I do and almost all of my business comes through referrals and repeat clients. My knowledge of the International Market through experience working in the UK, China, India and South East Asia provides an edge for overseas clients investing locally.

Richard has held senior management positions in business development and large multidisciplinary projects in the infrastructure and consulting industries and specialises in project development, commercial alignment and the pursuit of opportunities.

Professional project management, execution planning, meeting deliverables…

I’m sure many will agree with me when I say, management consulting commissions can turn fuzzy and grey very quickly. Because this type of work seldom produces a physical product, it is sometimes very difficult to gauge the value delivered. Mercor realizes this; and because our people have come from project delivery backgrounds, we approach our assignments differently. Whether it’s the development of a large infrastructure project or a more internally focused capability strengthening exercise, we use tried and tested delivery techniques. In conjunction with our clients, we develop a project execution plan early on for any work we undertake, so that objectives, deliverables and timeframes are understood and agreed; and the client remains in control of finances. Each project is carefully scoped and deconstructed into a number of simple action plans that are costed, scheduled and implemented.

Sharman is a project management professional who has worked in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa in the management and development of capital infrastructure and assets.
