Gavin Niemeyer knows what it takes to build a business — because he’s done it. With over 30 years of hands-on experience across construction, project management, and business ownership, Gavin has worked as a carpenter, bridge builder, and site manager before running his own specialist construction business for 16 years.
He’s also sold his own businesses. That experience changes how he works with sellers. He’s not just someone who understands the numbers — he understands the weight of the decision, what you’ve sacrificed to get here, and what a good outcome actually looks like from the owner’s side of the table.
Business owners selling in Queensland choose Gavin because his advice is grounded in real experience, not just process. He knows what drives business value, what buyers are actually looking for, and where deals fall apart before they get started. His honest approach and strong industry relationships mean sellers get straight answers — and a smoother path to settlement.
If you’re thinking about selling your business and want to talk to someone who’s been through it themselves, Gavin is a good place to start.
