Roger Mendelson

Roger Mendelson has more than 45 years’ experience operating Australia’s largest (by client number) privately owned debt-collection company, Prushka, which collects debts for over 58,000 small-to medium-sized businesses as well as major Australian companies across Australia. As from March 2021, he has been Executive Chair of Prushka. Prushka is often regarded as the ‘canary in the coal mine’, through its ability to provide insights into trends in business, economics and consumer debt well before they are observed more widely. This comes from its spread of clients both geographically across five Australian states and in terms of business profiles. Roger also has extensive legal experience, both as a partner of a law firm and now as Director of Mendelsons National Debt Collection Lawyers, Prushka’s in-house law firm.
