What is your Business Worth? – Albany

150416---calendar-icon-template

One of the motivations of many business owners is to build a valuable asset – and most business owners anticipate the day in the future when they can cash out of their business.  But what is your business worth?  And perhaps more importantly, what are the drivers of the value of your business that you may be able to maximise over time?  If you ever ponder these questions, this Business Owners Forum event will be worthwhile to attend.

On the panel to discuss this topic are Bruce Sheppard (Shareholders’ Association founder and Financial Markets Authority member) and Fraser Hurrell (director of Elevate CA Limited).  We are confident that you will walk away from this event with some additional insight to these issues.

This Business Owners Forum event will be held at the BNZ Partners facility on Constellation Drive, North Harbour at 5:30pm for a 5:40pm start on Thursday 16 April – and will run through to 7:00pm.

As always for Business Owners Forum events, this session will be free of charge and completely free of sales pitches from the supporters or the panellists. And there will be pizza, beer and wine to lubricate quality discussion.

Business Owners Forums are held monthly – alternating between Whangarei, Albany and Newmarket venues. Although no two Business Owners Forum events are the same, this event will be more or less repeated in Newmarket on Wednesday 20 May.

If you’d like to attend this event, email Fraser Hurrell (fraser@elevateca.co.nz) before this event fills up.  And if you’d like to be included on the invite list for future events, just add your contact details in the box to the right.

Directors Risks – Whangarei

150326---calendar-icon

Becoming director of a company is easy.  All you need is to be appointed by the shareholders, to accept that appointment – and to not be a person disqualified from being a director under the Companies Act.  Simple.  But with that appointment comes significant duties and obligations – enforceable by significant penalties including the possibility of imprisonment under various Acts.

There is some considerable risk attached to getting it wrong.  Our panel will be discussing the issues and the risks at this breakfast event.

This event will be held at the Elevate CA Limited offices 7:30am Thursday 26 March.  You can find us at level 4, 35 Robert Street, Whangarei.  Map here >>>.

As always for Elevate CA events, this session will be free of charge and completely free of sales pitches from the supporters or the panelists.  And there will be breakfast, coffee and tea to lubricate quality discussion.

We’re hiring

 

We are growing fast – and we are looking for just the right accountant to join our team.

Who we are looking for?

You will need to be up to speed in the CA industry right now with a “can do” attitude and at least two years recent experience in an NZ Chartered Accounting business.

And if you also have a partial accounting qualification – and knowledge of the Acclipse iFirm software, that would be a real advantage.

If this sounds like you, read on …

Who are we?

We are Chartered Accountants with a difference.   We are small enough to be nimble – and we are willing to take a risk to deliver better value and service to our clients.   We are a relaxed team – but highly focussed on providing fantastic value and service to our clients.  And we’re a very long way from the traditional accounting “factory”. We embrace innovation and change as a positive rather than avoiding it as a threat to “the way things are done around here”.  We have up-to-the-minute IT, we are marketing focussed, and are always looking for opportunities to connect our business clients with each other. If you’re completing PCEI or PCEII, we have a registered mentor on the team.

 What is the position?

This is a full time position based in our CBD Whangarei office, with plenty of client contact.  You’ll be preparing financial statements and tax returns from source documents – and playing a key role in managing our relationship with clients, other professionals and the IRD.

What to do from here?

If you have at least two years recent experience as an accountant in an NZ Chartered Accounting business – and you like what you see on this website, email your CV to goingUP@elevateCA.co.nz now.  We want to know about your CA experience, where you’re working right now, the kind of work you’re doing – and any questions you may have.  You will hear from us straight away to acknowledge receipt of your CV – and to arrange interviews where applicable.  Start date will be to suit – and you’ll be very busy from day one!

Thank you for taking an interest in joining the Elevate CA team!
