Helping clients visualise and frame their dreams and establishing how to go about realising these dreams with the resources at their disposal is a challenge Martin relishes.

He completed three years of articles in May 1990 at Deloitte, and qualified as a Chartered Accountant (SA) in the same year. After completing articles at Deloitte, Martin remained with Deloitte until December 1995, during which time he became an Audit Manager in the Entrepreneurial Services Division.

His responsibility also included the internal audit function of the group and he reported to the Premier Group Internal Audit Committee.
Martin started an audit practice, Pro Deo Auditors, in April 1998. In March 2005, the Ascor™ Group was formed when Pro Deo Auditors merged practices with Mr Wouter Fourie of Ascor™ Financial Advisers CC.
