Stewart’s interest in accounting and management was sparked at a young age while assisting with the accounts and management of his family’s farm. He enjoyed the work and appreciated the advice accountants gave to help their family business.

He went on to study at Curtin University before becoming a CPA and working his way up through two 2nd tier firms. Stewart joined ROCG in 1999 where he remains today as the managing directors of the Perth group.

Stewart has a particular interest in the property and construction, manufacturing, agriculture, and medical fields and focuses on business strategy, capital raising, employee share ownership schemes, forecasting and management consulting.

Advice he regularly gives to clients is ‘what you can measure, you can manage’ and to be clear around business objectives.

During his time at ROCG, he has seen the Perth branch evolve into a multidisciplinary practice, now with five business divisions including a specialist R&D Tax Incentives team. For Stewart and the Perth branch, the focus has gone from simply increasing turnover to helping clients succeed.

We once referred to a financial turnover target but we’ve felt more of a need to focus on clients success. Our vision is to be a trusted advisor and employer of choice here in Perth.

We like people to see something they spend their whole life working at come to fruition. From start-up to growth to eventual exit we enjoy helping people achieve their goals

When he’s not working, you’ll find Stewart enjoying time with family, travelling, and out on the water, barefoot waterskiing.
