We are not your normal bean counters! For a start, we come to you!
We often hear people complain their accountant doesn't actually explain "what the numbers mean". Does your accountant "get" you and your business? We do. We are accountants, but we are real world accountants with a personality, you can actually have a conversation with us and ask us questions!
Avegna was founded in 2007 by CEO, Scott Lyall. Scott is a KPMG trained Chartered Accountant who for over 15 years worked at a senior level in some of the largest multinational organisations in the world including Mobil, AXA, Shell, British Telecom and Dell Computer Corporation.
After working in London for over five years Scott returned to Australia and has worked as a senior finance executive for several company groups both public and privately owned. At that time Scott recognised a niche opportunity for a consultancy firm of accountants to assist small to medium sized (SME) businesses run their finances.
“I found that a lot of people I talked to needed a qualified accountant working in their business but couldn’t afford one or needed more than a bookkeeper or accounts person to help with the bigger picture financial management of their business but didn’t need a fulltime CFO. After working for large corporates around the world and then smaller private company groups here in Australia, I became passionate about working with people in SME businesses who genuinely want financial management assistance and advice. Some people want help to grow their business, others may reach a point where they realise they need to ask someone for help to get things back on track. Either way we are happy to roll our sleeves up and get stuck in!” – Scott Lyall, CEO of Avegna
