My career has taken me full circle, from working with small businesses to advising some of the world's biggest corporations. During that journey, I learned a lot about how the world's most successful companies are run. I also learned that many small busineses are badly served by their accountants, who act more like compliance chopshops than true business partners.
Your business is a measure of your success and you place significant trust in those who advise you. We believe that trust is the bond that holds all successful relationships together. Whether it's simply returning phone call or something bigger like helping you leave your legacy to the next generation, you can depend on us.
Good accounting is at the core of running a successful business. From financial accounting to management reporting, without accurate numbers, you're flying blind. As specialists in IFRS and financial reporting, we provide CFOs of corporate and listed businesses the support they need to successfully have a stress free year-end.
Would you like to get more tools, tips and accounting annecdotes from James Scott each month? Understanding the lifetime value of a client can be tricky. If you're not literally counting beans (every coffee you buy for a meeting) you may find yourself overlooking many of the incidental inputs that are involved in the journey from prospect to sale.

I've had the benefit of working with James over the past 6 months specifically in relation to a capital raise, audit engagement, company cashflow analysis and process improvement project for an insurance entity. He has a wealth of accounting and insurance knowledge from his many years in the industry and made a very positive contribution to the team. He won't shy away from topics and will call it as it is, making sure the conversation is focused and not avoiding the sometimes difficult decisions. I think he'd make a positive contribution to any business that chose to work with him.

I found JD Scott & Co fairly randomly through a Google search, and I'm so happy I did. James has been very responsive, got on top of our overdue stuff very quickly, has been very patient in explaining things to me and proactive in flagging potential areas to investigate for savings or other benefits. Thanks James!
