Prior to founding Black Mountain Partners in 2018, Oliver was MD of Porto Montenegro for 11 years, where he led the development and operation of a mixed-use luxury super yacht marina, including over 250 residential units, 50 retail stores, 450 marina berths, a 110 key 5-star Regent hotel, a Knightsbridge boarding school and multiple amenities. The total investment over this period reached approximately €450million, backed by Peter Munk (founder of Barrick Gold), Lord Jacob Rothschild (Rothschild Investment Trust – RIT) and Bernard Arnault (Groupe Arnault).

After Porto Montenegro became firmly established as one of the leading luxury yacht ports on the Mediterranean, Oliver sold the business to the Dubai sovereign wealth fund, the Investment Corporation of Dubai (ICD) in 2016.

Prior to this, Oliver was at Onex Investment Corporation in its New York office undertaking media and entertainment investments and at Goldman Sachs & Co in New York in its Investment Banking Division. Oliver holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a Bachelor of Business (Hons) from UTS, Sydney.

Oliver leads the Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) task force at Black Mountain Partners.
