Dillon Robertson

I have recently returned from four months of travelling in South America after finishing a master's degree in Real Estate at Bayes Business School in London. If I was to describe myself I would say I am a healthily competitive person who likes setting and reaching goals. My main interests outside of work is sports and I currently play rugby for my local club.

It was a valuable experience as it allowed me to build on my current knowledge and improve my financial modelling skills working with the analysts every week.
