Meet Peter Toll
Peter Toll, National Leader of Food and Agribusiness and Partner in Deal Advisory at BDO, shares a career shaped by relationships, resilience and a deep understanding of people. Drawing on his upbringing in Wagin, Western Australia, Peter reflects on how early exposure to farming, community and stakeholder management continues to inform his approach to business today.
Across more than 25 years in M&A and advisory, Peter provides insight into current deal activity, highlighting the growing influence of generational succession, particularly among baby bomber business owners and the increasing corporatisation of sectors such as agriculture. He emphasises the importance of preparation, governance and strong management structures in achieving successful transaction outcomes.
At its core, Peter’s perspective is grounded in people. Whether guiding clients through complex transactions or mentoring the next generation of professionals, he defines success not just by financial outcomes, but by helping others achieve their goals and building lasting relationships along the way.
