Brandon Topham

Professional advisor and Director of companies


Currently resides in: Gauteng, South Africa

Born 07-06-1971 in Pretoria South Africa

I specialise in forensic accounting and business management consulting. I have a wide range of experience with small to large business and have been active in local government politics since 2006. I sit on various company boards (Private and Publicly listed) in both Executive and Non Executive role. I play a role on the Audit committees and on Company strategy. Corporate Governance has become a major part of current business and I have, out of necessity, developed in this role.

I am currently practicing as a professional consultant and business advisor in South African and in England, maintaining a home and offices in both countries.
