In a former life I was a lawnmower man, working in the family business (est. 1956) and a musician. Now, I’m the head of a Chartered Accounting Firm that advises hundreds of businesses.
I commenced my career 22 years ago, as an accountant working for a Public Company. This beginning provided me with a great understanding of accounting concepts, but I found I was drawn towards tax and public practice. They provided me with a greater diversity of work.
My areas of expertise include:
- The construction industry
- property taxation issues, including property investment vs development
- capital gains tax
- GST
- business structuring for tax efficiency and asset protection
- taxation and business planning and;
- self-managed superannuation funds
I also work closely with a number of technology and start-up business owners, assisting them with a range of different things. These include structuring their ventures, raising capital, developing growth strategies, through to IPO/ICO, along with providing corporate compliance and governance whilst acting as Company Secretary and Director.
My passion is working closely with clients and spending time in their business to gain a better understanding of their financial affairs. This allows me to provide better and more timely advice.
When I’m not spending time with my wife and my two children, I put my expertise at the service of all business owners, through arnocas.
