    Vanessa Malcolm has been bookkeeper at our paediatric practice since June 2014 and she has been nothing short of wonderful since she began working with us. She is without doubt the most superior of all our previous bookkeepers.\r\n
    \r\n
    \r\nVanessa is incredibly proactive, always predicting where problems may occur and preventing them. Her advice in every aspect of this practice has been invaluable, in particular in matters of superannuation and taxation. She ensures that everything we doing the practice is open to scrutiny.\r\n
    \r\n
    \r\nOn a personal note, she is a pleasure to have in our office every week. She is down to earth, incredibly hard working and diligent, compassionate and understanding and goes out of her way to help us in every aspect of the running of the practice. She gets along well with all our staff and is an integral part of our team. She manages to not be distracted or bothered by the constant very loud background noise of very active children that goes on in a paediatrician’s office and often takes the time to say a few kind words to the children in the waiting room.\r\n
    \r\n
    \r\nI would state that Vanessa is a huge asset to this practice and to any organisation seeking a bookkeeper of excellence.<\/q><\/p>\r\n

    Vanessa and her team at First Class Accounts have been acting for us now for 12 wonderful years. So precise with the bookkeeping matters including staffing advise that it gives us peace of mind in running our loss adjusting business. I highly recommend Vanessa and her team when choosing bookkeeping services on the Gold Coast.<\/q><\/p>\r\n

    We have worked with Jamie from First Class Accounts for many years and cannot recommend her highly enough.\r\n
    \r\nTurnkey Property Group was one of Jamie\u2019s early clients, and we have had the privilege of growing alongside her business over that time. As our company has expanded, Jamie has consistently kept pace with our needs, ensuring that our financial systems, reporting, payroll and compliance are always organised, accurate and up to date.\r\n
    \r\nOne of the biggest benefits Jamie brings is the freedom it gives us as business owners. Knowing the bookkeeping and financial administration are completely under control allows us to focus on working on the business rather than being tied up working in it. That extra bandwidth has been invaluable and has helped support our growth into multiple sites across Queensland.\r\n
    \r\nJamie handles the detail, the deadlines and the day to day financial processes that keep a business running properly. In our experience, any cost associated with her services is more than offset by the growth and opportunities we have been able to pursue because our focus has been freed from the accounts.\r\n
    \r\nJamie is professional, dependable and incredibly thorough. She has been a trusted part of our journey and continues to play an important role behind the scenes in supporting our business as it grows.\r\n
    \r\nWe are very grateful for the work she does and highly recommend Jamie and First Class Accounts to any business looking for reliable, high quality bookkeeping support.<\/q><\/p>\r\n
