Tax Agents and Accountants have their place, but sometimes as a business owner, you need more than that. I can discuss your business and advise or help with the many issues around running a small to larger size enterprise based on my experience. Apart from tax, BAS and accounting, I offer business improvement like planning, marketing, human resources and maybe selling the business.

Then there’s the statutory requirements around employment like Fair Work Australia, workers insurance, superannuation and payroll tax as well as general tax.

My background is business, accountancy and tax…in that order! I’ve owned, operated and managed a number of businesses and still do so today. So the work I do or advice I can provide comes from solid business experience! If you have tax or business issues, I can advise or help you to resolve them.

You don’t want an Accountant who says “if things don’t improve, you’ll have to shut your doors!” and leaves you to figure it out from there!

My experience in tax, business, accounting and computing includes:

• Accountant for S. Kidman & Co for 15 years to 1990
• H&R Block Registered Tax Agent nominee for 3 years to 1983
• Business partner & software developer for 2 years to 1991
• Financial Controller / General Manager to 1994
• Acquired a business that developed and supported software to photocopier businesses and that expanded into providing software to Telstra Shops nationwide. Withdrew as CEO from the business in 2010 (employed 28+ people)
• Owned a number of businesses throughout including laundromats, retail tobacco products, lawnmower repairs, sign & graphics shop, hairdressing salon, share trading and others…
• Investment property ownership
