Rick has extensive experience developing contracting/service, engineering and manufacturing businesses for export markets, across NZ, Australia, Europe, UK, Asia and the USA. He has held senior corporate roles in medium to large sized entities in NZ, and directorships/advisory roles for companies based in the UK and Australia. Rick has worked across many industry and business segments, from manufacturing, management training, mining and quarrying, along with many 24hour engineering and service delivery companies. He also has 20+ years of experience, at senior strategic and operating levels, in the electrical distribution and contracting industry in New Zealand. Rick’s strengths lie in strategy development, people management, service delivery, business to business relationships and profit execution. He focuses on sales, mergers, acquisitions (going concern and shareholdings) and divestments of businesses in the value range $500,000 upwards, particularly in import, export, distribution, manufacturing, engineering and service related businesses. Rick has been based in the Waikato/Bay of Plenty area for most of his working life. His network of contacts is extensive and his business background vast. Drawing from both, Rick can readily connect buyers with the “right” business and ensure that vendors get the best possible return on their investment. What Others Say: John and I made the decision to sell our business and I found Rick’s profile on the Link Business site. The profile impressed me and I gave him a call, and can honestly say, the rest is history, because he guided us professionally through the whole experience to a successful sale. I would highly recommend Rick Johnson to look after the sale of any business. His professionalism was outstanding, and with his ability to inspire respect and cooperation, he guided both parties through the whole process. Thank you, Rick, it has been a pleasure to work with you John and Fiona Stares
