About Dave

Dave joined the Squirrel team in 2020. As Chief Operating Officer (COO), Dave heads up all aspects of our peer-to-peer lending and investment platform and manages the product offering across the business.

Over the years, he’s been responsible for the delivery of several major product enhancements for Squirrel, including the launch of the Squirrel On-Call Account, the Squirrel Monthly Income Fund, and a number of other solutions tailored to wholesale investors. 

Prior to joining Squirrel, Dave racked up nearly 20 years of senior experience across leading New Zealand financial services organisations — including ANZ and Westpac — with a primary focus on delivering product and service solutions to digitise and transform the customer experience.

To put it simply — what Dave doesn’t know about the world of finance and investing isn’t worth knowing. If you’ve got questions about investing with Squirrel, and which option might be right for you, Dave’s your guy.

I honestly didn't think we were able to get a mortgage or a house. Blake Neve made this possible and fulfilled the ultimate dream for us. Blake is patient, willing to answer any questions under the sun and is externally supportive. I would recommend him over and over again!

Had a great experience with Mark helping me sort a home loan. He was friendly, helpful, and proactive.

Adam in the Dunedin office was the pillar of strength we didn't know we needed through this whole process. Quick informative responses in easy to understand language. He listened to what we wanted to do, and worked with us explaining all the pros & cons to each option, and helped us narrow down to the best solution for us. Always polite and courteous, calm and reassuring throughout. When we next need lending or financial advise, Adam will be our go to guy!! :)

My partner and I couldn't be more impressed with Oli's help setting up our mortgage. As first home buyers, the process was daunting at first, but Oli assisted with every step. We also really appreciated Squirrel's transparency with banks they worked with and how their commission process worked. We are very satisfied with the final result and have already recommended others to Oli for his services!
