RECOMMENDATIONS
What people say.
Bookkeeping, payroll & BAS
Narelle has been a great help to our plastering business in Newport. I needed an outsourced bookkeeping solution because I couldn’t keep up and wanted an expert to take ownership of it.
For the past 10 years, Narelle has handled our bookkeeping, weekly payroll and BAS lodgements, giving me more time to focus on jobs and customers.
Read the full recommendation
She’s approachable, generous with her time and explains things clearly. She keeps us organised and compliant. I highly recommend Narelle at CFO as a Service – BOOKKEEPING to other trade businesses looking for reliable support.
Finance leadership & global teams
When Narelle joined HammerTech as a contracted Financial Controller in 2019, we needed significant improvements to our accounting processes, operational procedures and staff onboarding. She rolled up her sleeves and got on with it, even when the work was challenging.
Read the full recommendation
She built a small team, onboarded our US team and standardised procedures across the US and ANZ. She managed, coached and mentored staff globally, and led the finance side of due diligence for our A$10 million capital raise, working virtually.
Nothing is ever too much trouble for Narelle. She gets things done without fuss, is fiercely loyal and has a positive influence on the culture of the business.
It was an absolute pleasure working with her, and I hope we get to work together again.
