Our Services
Driving shareholder value
Linking executive pay to performance for some of the most successful organisations in the world. The difficult job of creating shareholder value - the primary motivation for senior executives - is our over-riding objective.
Helping executives flourish
Managing a world class management team is challenging, enthralling and lonely. We work in partnership with our clients as trusted advisors to ensure directors’ remuneration and their incentive compensation.
Reinventing reward
We can help bring some calm and objective thinking to an often fast-moving debate, either at the remuneration committee, or between the principals of an organisation.
As Chair of the Board Remuneration Committee of a major public corporation, I have had the pleasure of being a senior client of Simon Patterson at his predecessor firm and can attest to his diligence, expertise and insights in the delicate area of C-suite remuneration.
If you or your organisation are looking for truly independent advice and a strong voice to advocate to an increasingly complex set of stakeholders, Simon’s new firm Rem.n should be on your very short shortlist.

Simon and team provided independent, expert analysis and insight to our Board as we evaluated our remuneration policy and provisions. Their market benchmarking was thorough (based on a broad range data sources) and thought-provoking (providing challenge regarding appropriate comparator groups). It became clear they deeply understood the challenges we faced - and as such, they were able to develop pragmatic solutions that took into account our unique situation, the qualitative people issues we were grappling with, along with the fact-based market evidence they provided.

I’ve found Simon and the team at Rem.n insightful and refreshingly honest. Their support to Engro’s Board and Management with our new Long-term Executive Incentive program, from concept to consensus building, has not only been tailored, responsive and proactive, but Simon can be relied upon if you want a candid opinion. This played an important role in unblocking inevitable challenges and mediating conflicting opinions. We always felt we were getting the personal touch, and the hands-on style that differentiates Rem.n from other advisors - they really were a true partner, with expertise and practical perspective having worked in similar situations globally
