Tauranga

Helping Fuel NZ's prosperity in the city I love. In 2017 I returned to KPMG in Tauranga but this time in the Enterprise team. I get a lot of job satisfaction helping business owners understand their business better and create value while we're at it. Whilst still strong at my core accounting role, I spend a large portion of my role looking ahead with clients, setting goals, forecasting scenarios, planning for events and setting up reports to track progress. Then for those looking to exit, being a salesman in disguise, I take pride in preparing the business for maximum value and presenting this in an impressive sales memo. As a manager of a high performing team, I'm very thankful for those around me and for the training KPMG has provided throughout to date. I rate highly the experience from working at KPMG where I can see values and purpose in action, thank you to all who have contributed to this.
