The questions leaders ask me

Why Simplx
Big Four rigour. Boutique delivery.
The skills you'd expect from a large firm, delivered by the person you actually meet.
The senior person does the work
No hand-offs to a junior team. You work directly with a Chartered Accountant who has led global finance projects, from the Board paper to the go-live.
A rare combination of skills
Technical accounting, systems, process and project delivery in one pair of hands, so nothing gets lost between the accountant, the project manager and the systems lead.
Proven where it's complex
Experience across private equity backed groups, US$1b+ multinationals and New Zealand private businesses, working with Boards, lenders, auditors and regulators.
Change that outlasts the engagement
Process documentation, training and roadshows are part of the job, not an afterthought, so your team can run what's been built.
Work with me
Support that fits the problem.
Some problems need a senior person in the team for a while. Others need a clear answer, fast, for a fixed fee.
