Brendan Richards

“Logistics is not an industry. It is actually the function of movement and, as such, integral to all industries. What I do is help leaders and organisations adopt a logistics mindset that identifies risk, manages exposures and creates opportunities that others can’t see.”

As a KPMG Deal Advisory Partner and Head of KPMG’s Transport & Logistics team, Brendan has been engaged as a key strategic advisor across a variety of organisations including many of Australia’s largest transport operators. He has applied his unique logistics perspective to significantly improve their business performance and assist them in preparing for a future in which both logistics and technology play an increasingly important role.

Whether your organisation is expanding or divesting, undergoing transformational change, or responding to the arrival of new competitors, Brendan brings a unique approach to the identification of risk, management, and business opportunities.

Brendan is a regular contributor to a number of industry publications and his ‘Logistics Mindset’ seminars are extremely popular and informative. He has also worked behind the scenes on a number of significant mergers and acquisitions in both Australian and international markets.
