Austock Group has lured Deutsche Bank managing director of corporate finance Chris Sadler to the key role of non-executive director.

Sadler’s two decades of experience in investment banking in senior roles in Asia, Australia, Europe and North America motivated the appointment.

According to Austock, Sadler has an extensive track record of leading major mergers and acquisitions and corporate restructurings including equity and debt financing.

In conjunction with his appointment, Sadler will continue to serve as a director on a number of boards in the corporate and not-for-profit sectors.
