How we help
We know that business owners juggle a lot, so we aim to take the pressure off. We will take care of the accounting side of things, becoming a trusted partner who is invested in your long-term success.
We have unique insights into each client’s business, as well as a broader perspective from working with hundreds of businesses over the years. We can leverage this knowledge to your advantage, helping to improve processes, strategy, and outcomes.
Our deep experience in numerous sectors will also empower you with the best practices in your industry.
Along the way, we can also support you with data and forecasting to help you navigate challenges and complex business decisions, and maximise your potential.
What our Accounting & Business Advisory clients say
I have found the culture at BG to be extremely professional, emulating the service experience of a top tier firm at a suburban-level expense. They offer clients genuine care and wellbeing.
Working with BG has been like having our own dedicated accounting team on call. Their expertise and attention to detail has been unparalleled.
We were a UK company looking to set up a subsidiary in Australia… We have no hesitation in recommending BG to anyone looking for a professional accounting and auditing firm in Australia.
Our approach
With new clients we work to really listen and understand you, your business, your pain points, and goals.
We also ‘look under the hood’ to ensure that your business is set up in the best possible way and that any outstanding issues are resolved. And while clients may prefer different levels of involvement, we will always take time to clearly explain our recommendations.
On an ongoing basis, you can expect clear and regular communication, and reassurance that your day-to-day accounting needs are in hand. In addition, we will proactively look out for opportunities on your behalf, stay on top of any legislative changes to prevent problems down the track, and respond to your questions efficiently.
All our advisors are backed by a team of specialist experts from our other divisions, including Tax Advisory, Audit & Assurance, Corporate Advisory, and Private Equity.
