Meet your team

Our Tax Advisory practice manage a range of taxation issues. As legislative experts with longstanding institutional relationships with the ATO, this team advocates for effective tax legislation that benefits middle-market businesses and organisations.

We're focused on outcomes for clients, not internal box ticking exercises. You'll be empowered to challenge the status quo and find a way to make things happen to add real value to our clients' businesses.

The International Tax team operates as a cohesive group within the broader Tax Advisory practice, where collaboration is encouraged, and regular training keeps the team up to date on current tax matters.

From legislative updates, recent cases, and ATO public rulings, our training keeps you updated on the latest developments in tax.
