About us

Hawkesbury Group is a strategic finance advisory specialising in supporting professional services businesses with forward-looking financial insight. Based in Canberra (AEST/AEDT) and working across time zones from New Zealand to Dubai, the firm helps founders, directors, and CFOs make better decisions through deeper financial clarity.

With deep experience across top-tier firms including KPMG, Deloitte, and several boutique consultancies, Hawkesbury Group brings a unique blend of commercial, operational, and financial expertise. The firm has advised clients in both delivery consulting and internal finance leadership roles, providing a grounded understanding of how professional services businesses really operate.

Hawkesbury Group does not offer tax or bookkeeping services. Instead, the focus is wholly on strategic finance — including profitability analysis, forecasting, scenario modelling, and finance system design — to help businesses grow sustainably, scale efficiently, and unlock better margins.

Clients work with Hawkesbury Group when they want real insight, practical financial thinking, and a trusted partner who understands the inner workings of professional services.

How we work

Great communication

Clear, calm, and consistent. I keep things simple and make sure you’re never left wondering where things stand.

Hard work

We bring energy and discipline to every engagement. We do the work — not just the thinking.

Evidence-based thinking

We believe smart decisions come from strong data. We don’t chase trends — we build ideas on logic, experience, and what the numbers say.

Building real relationships

This is a people business. I work best with clients who value trust, collaboration, and long-term partnership.

Have fun!

Business is serious — but working together shouldn’t be a drag. A bit of humour and humility go a long way.

Our Typical Engagement Model

A clear, proven approach: understand the business, deliver change quickly, then provide ongoing strategic support.
