Thoughtpost Governance

When Andrew Donovan lamented to a friend that he needed his accountant to take a more proactive approach, the answer came in the form of Bluebird Accounting. Throughout their 10-year relationship, Bluebird Accounting has continued to stay one step ahead, offering valuable, strategic advice and compliance that pivots and changes with business growth and new technology.

“One thing that fundamentally altered and streamlined our business was the introduction of technology. Bluebird Accounting was proactive in recommending the accounting software Xero, and it has provided us with both cost savings and efficiencies in how we run our businesses.”

The serial entrepreneur, board member and founder of a consultancy-based practice Thoughtpost Governance – a business that transforms boards into agile and high-performing teams through leadership strategies and corporate governance – initially commissioned Bluebird Accounting for business advice and bookkeeping services.

As the business became successful and another was added on, so too did the complexities of Andrew’s personal finances. Bluebird Accounting restructured Andrew and his partner’s personal situation into a logical and strategic plan that made financial sense.

While a proactive approach is important, just as important, says Andrew, is how Bluebird Accounting run their business: “Bluebird Accounting is an energetic, values-based business, which aligns with our own values.”
