O’Connor Partners is an independent advisory firm that helps Boards, CEOs, and CFOs make confident decisions on strategy, investments, and structure. We combine deep analytical capability with practical judgement, working directly with clients on decisions that are often complex, high-stakes, and don’t fit the standard mould.
Based in Te Waipounamu South Island, we bring local, national, and international experience. We have particular expertise in working with organisations such as iwi, co-operatives, and local government, where real-world constraints, including limited access to capital, often shape the available options. Our clients value our straight talk, intellectual honesty, and the fact that they work directly with senior people who roll up their sleeves to get the job done.
The kea in our corporate identity is a quiet nod to our Te Waipounamu South Island home and to the curiosity, adaptability, and practical problem-solving mindset we bring to complex situations.
