“For a long time now, I have relied on MJC Partners as an invaluable asset for my small businesses, with the team providing strategic accounting and bookkeeping solutions.

Throughout the seven-plus years of our partnership, MJC has adeptly and holistically managed the financial complexities of my recruitment firm, Hope & Glory, including all related personal finances. Their responsiveness, knowledge, and amiable approach make collaboration a genuine pleasure. Matt Salmon, Michael Hutchins, and their team have consistently exhibited remarkable expertise, continuity and dedication.

MJC Partners transcends being mere service providers; they are integral to our business's success. I went to market for efficient and reliable financial management and absolutely found it with MJC Partners."

“Succession planning is a potentially stressful and costly process. We were faced with the potential dilemma of transitioning our business to the next generation in a tax effective way. Our previous accountant believed that the succession process would trigger hundreds of thousands of dollars of Capital Gains Tax.

Through MJC’s knowledge of the intricacies of the tax system, along with their network of valuers, tax lawyers and advisors, they were able to ensure we paid no CGT at all! Not only this, but the structure we now have is better for asset protection, is more tax effective, and is a better structure for future succession.

Throughout the process, Matt explained the issues and the solutions, and made us comfortable and informed, in what would normally be a stressful situation.

Once the restructure was complete, MJC set about redrafting our financial accounts to give us more detailed and relevant management accounts. They assisted us with setting relevant KPIs that are tailored to our situation and our quarterly management meetings with MJC now help us focus on the areas that are important to manage our business efficiently and effectively.

Whether it’s through compliance, one offs like implementing Superstream or Single Touch Payroll, liaising with the bank about our covenants, deferred GST in relation to our imports or strategic forecasting, we know MJC have the expertise to grow with us.”

“I had a feeling that we weren’t getting value for money with our old accountant, but it wasn’t until we started working with Dave that I realised what a good accountant can actually add.

He has fixed up all the issues that our previous accountant caused and has helped us restructure our affairs to save tax and increase our asset protection.

We also felt that we were getting bill after bill with our old accountant. Knowing that we can call Dave whenever we have a query and it is included in our fixed fee is great. As a result we are in constant communication and this results in better outcomes.

Our relationship with our accountant has gone from one where we would meet once a year to one where we meet with Dave quarterly for management meetings and he is always available by phone to answer any queries we have.

Whether it be partitioning for stamp duty, payroll queries, property development or the management of our restaurant, we know we can call Dave and he will make sure we get the best advice and outcome possible.”

“We call Chris our External CEO. Chris helped us redevelop our business plan, which has helped us to really focus on our strategic direction. This focus has in turn brought renewed motivation and inspiration to senior management and the firm as a whole.

Following the maxim ‘You can’t manage what you don’t measure’, Chris has helped us develop results orientated financial KPIs. By marrying this with a monitoring system for tracking progress towards these KPIs, we have seen an increase in the financial figures, but financial KPIs are just the start. MJC have helped with our corporate governance and strategic oversight across the board.

Chris has helped us take a strategic look at the way we monitor performance and conformance in all areas of the business. This is not a set and forget service. Each management meeting is tailored to our specific circumstances, goals and issues.

MJC are constantly assessing our systems and processes and evaluating where in our workflow we can increase efficiencies and effectiveness. They are constantly trying to identify non value adding activities that can be eliminated.

Chris has helped us with team building and increasing our communication channels, setting realistic goals and staying motivated to reach those goals. I can’t recommend the service highly enough.”

I started working with Chris soon after setting up my business. In a little over a year we have introduced a new CRM, revised our quoting system, improved our cost tracking system and trained our staff in the new quoting system and the critical interactions between quotes, budgets and project management.

We’ve put in place better processes around when suppliers are paid, have improved our debtor terms and now have more meaningful and accurate monthly reports so we know exactly how we’re tracking.

We have introduced an improved workflow management system to reduce the variance between feast and famine and enable us to manage our time and resources more effectively.

MJC have helped us analyse the cost benefit of employees versus sub-contractors and identify the right mix for our business.

Of course they do standard accounting and I appreciate that, but my time with Chris is invaluable and what sets MJC apart from other accountants.”
