Registered Liquidator operating from Southport on the Gold Coast with offices in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. Corporate Restructuring, Insolvency and Turnaround specialists.My experience covers a whole range of small to medium sized businesses both in operational, managerial, consultancy and lately in Insolvency and Turnaround. My practical experience in commerce before entering the Insolvency Industry has helped me to understand the problems faced by directors and their advisors.I have extensive experience in trade-on situations where my experience in commerce and industry has helped me to keep expenses down while searching for buyers or better alternatives for the affected businesses.I was member of the ATO Small Business Fix it Squad for the Building and Construction Industry. This squad contained a mixture of small business owners, ATO specialist staff, staff from other government agencies and one other Registered Liquidator. I attended a two day workshop in Brisbane where a list of action items were developed. The initiative by the ATO is designed to recognise the signs of business failure and to hopefully take action that can help to reduce these failures in the Building and Construction Industry throughout Australia. I attended the second workshop which strived to achieve the desired outcomes which were recognised at the first workshop.
