Scott Martin

Scott has a genuine passion for compliance and a depth of experience across the financial services industry.  

Scott has spent the past 15 years in working in compliance at a variety of financial services firms. He has held multiple Head of Compliance roles, including at Wilsons Advisory where he first worked with one of AB’s founders - Nik Albrecht - and a life-long friendship was formed. 

Scott has a genuine passion for compliance, which already makes him a rare breed. When you combine that with his glass half full attitude, and calming nature, he is someone you are always happy to have on your team.

Scott believes that compliance doesn’t need to be scary, and that with the right framework in place, there is no regulatory issue that a business can’t manage. One of his key mantras is that compliance is not about never making a mistake - it’s about having a sensible approach to regulatory risk management that you can demonstrate to ASIC and other stakeholders.

In his spare time, Scott prides himself on being on a first name basis with every barista in Sydney and Brisbane - there is no coffee shop you can walk into without being greeted by over-excited exclamations of his name.

Scott has worked at Citigroup, Wilsons Advisory, Taishin Bank, RACQ and others. Find out more at his LinkedIn profile.
