Director of Superannuation
-
Mar 2009 - Apr 2015
Expert superannuation knowledge mixed with a touch of insanity had got me a reputation as a high rating speaker. Drinking too much coffee, then bouncing off the walls like a lunatic, while explaining complex superannuation strategies in a straightforward way, was my mix to keep everyone interested + awake. The result, my relationships with thousands of accountants and superannuation, accounting and tax professional bodies, made me fortunate enough to be able to go out on my own. I started Moss Munro Hunt and kept doing what I had been doing for the last decade: • Hundreds of presentations each year for accountants & professional bodies around Australia • Superannuation/SMSF technical support to accountants and their clients • Assisting with SMSF and borrowing arrangement establishments • Negotiating with government regulators on behalf of accountants with troubled SMSF’s

May 2008 - Mar 2009
From the Deloitte partner program I jumped to a Partner/Director role with mid-tier accounting firm William Buck. The aim was to obtain more control over the future of my work life and get a bit of balance, with my daughter 3 months old and a whole new stage of life starting. Most people have worked in a job at some point in their careers where nothing seems to go right. This was mine. Self Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF) training. Superannuation law expert support.

Principal/Director of Superannuation

Jan 2001 - May 2008
After 4 years within Deloitte I met Superannuation Master, John Randall, and found my calling. Under John's training I was promoted 3 times in 3 years. 2005 to Senior Analyst, 2006 to Manager, 2007 to Principal/Director and immediately enrolled in the Deloitte Partner's Program. I will forever be grateful for the grounding John and Deloitte gave me in understanding and interpreting superannuation legislation, working line by line through the confusion of superannuation law, to ensure any guidance or advice we gave a client or team member was 100% supported by law. The Deloitte Superannuation Consulting team is a rare breeding habitat, that has created several excellent superannuation technical minds now floating around different parts of Australia. Self Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF) training. Superannuation law expert support. Super advice for clients, accountants, financial advisers, lawyers and other advisers.
