Professional experience
Prior to joining Nexia Australia, Russell worked for a big-four firm before working briefly in the UK and returning to build his career within a smaller firm environment. His specialist areas include tax structuring for SME’s and auditing for financial services licensees.
Aspiring to a ‘common goal’ approach, Russell’s focus is on his clients identifying and realising their long-term business aims. The skills and knowledge he has developed over the years ensure he provides sound, tailored advice designed to build, strengthen and grow his client’s businesses.
Among his many long-standing clients are some groups Russell has advised for well over 15 years. During this time he has dealt with succession issues, capital gains tax, small business concessions structuring, retirement planning, private equity buy-ins and general compliance.
Russell’s experienced advice in identifying, implementing and managing operational procedures to one of his clients has resulted in 25% year-on-year improvement in their net profit.
