Profile

Paul Twigley, Director

Born in Taranaki but raised predominantly in Auckland I followed in the footsteps of my father in the accountancy line. I became a member of the New Zealand Institute of Chartered Accountants in 1991 after completing my degree part time at what was then Carrington Polytechnic.

My working career began part time at Broadlands Finance company to finance my way through Polytech. Full time work commenced at the Inland Revenue Department for 2 years of which most of that time spent on the audit section. I then joined Seal & Co Chartered Accountants working for 5 years on business services and taxation projects which provided a valuable grounding for development of my own practice.

The next progression was to a financial controller role with a medium sized transport company for two years before gaining my Certificate of Public Practice in 1997. I have been in public practice ever since and have a wide range of clients varying from a simple tax return preparation up to meeting the financial reporting requirements for multi-million dollar turnover companies. Included are rentals, trust work, company formations, tax minimisation plans, business services, management accounting, and budgeting & forecasting

Outside of work, time spent with my family is my priority and passion, and experiencing what life has to offer. I enjoy sport, particularly golf, and am a life member at the Akarana Golf Club. I have played a variety of different sports including tennis & athletics at competitive levels.
