02 — Approach

Four moves, every year.

Tidy

We take the shoebox. Bank feeds, receipts, the lot — reconciled monthly, not annually in a panic.

File

Returns lodged early, never late. IR letters stop being scary when they stop arriving.

Read

A one-page monthly note in plain English: what moved, why, and what it means for cash.

Steer

Quarterly sit-down. Pricing, hiring, that machine you're eyeing — decided with numbers, not vibes.

No step skipped, no matter how tidy your Xero already looks.

03 — People

Nine of us. No juniors on your file.

Rewa Cove, CA

Managing partner

Twenty years of small-business books; still answers her own phone.

Tom Mercer, CA

Tax

Reads IRD determinations for fun. Someone has to.

Amara Khan

Advisory

Ex-CFO. Allergic to dashboards nobody opens.

+ six more who keep the reconciliations humming.

Nine people, one office, zero call centre.

04 — Contact
