Trusted Global Financial Partner

VroomVroomVroom is a global Car Hire Comparison website.   Operating globally presents many high level challenges.  In January 2016 we went in search of professional services to compliment our business.

First impression of DFK Hirn Newey’s website was informative and professional. We were impressed with the profile information and Paul Fiumara’s IT experience and knowledge led us to our first meeting.  Many months down the track DFK provide us with exceptional services and advise us on our complicated global financial setup.  Services provided are always timely, of the highest quality, accurate and detailed.

Strategic Growth Advisory

We had the benefit of having Paul Fiumara consult for our business Boardcave.com. Paul has provided invaluable feedback on our growth strategy and planning, his understanding of tech business and his enthusiasm towards innovation allowed him to wholly understand our business needs.

We highly recommend his services and will continue to seek advice from him and his team over the coming year.

Director, Boardcave

Innovative Business Support

Paul Fiumara and his team assisted me in a new business project that involved the establishment of an exciting new and innovative sporting product.

Since then, Paul has also assisted us in the on-going operation of the business, its finances and systems. I have been very happy with the work DFK Hirn Newey have done for us and we continue to utilise their expertise in matters of accounting, tax and business services.

Longstanding Trusted Advisors

DFK Hirn Newey has been providing accounting and business advisory services to our company since 1992.

Gavin Johns and his team have assisted our organisation with advice and assistance in the establishment of three new companies, further developing synergy within our overall operations and market.

We appreciate their close understanding of our company’s operations and the personal approach taken in handling all issues with Management and Directors.

Our longstanding association with DFK Hirn Newey is testimony to the high level of personal service they have maintained, something we rely upon to aid us in our growth and success.

Proactive Business Structuring

Right from the start, when the idea of Bickerton Masters Architecture formed 13 years ago, we have benefited from the input, advice and understanding provided by DFK Hirn Newey.

As our business has grown to employ 35 people, we have relied on their valuable input and knowledge to help us evolve and structure our business to be robust and ready for the future.

Gavin Johns has proactively assisted us to adapt our business structure to anticipate the challenges of contemporary architectural practice. His attention to detail and vigour has been exemplary and we would happily recommend the DFK Hirn Newey team.

Strategic Business Partnership

Paul, Gavin and their team have been an absolute pleasure to work with over the past couple of years. Their professionalism and experience has always shone through in every manner of communication.

I love working with them as a strategic partner because they truly have their client’s best interests at heart. Their desire to succeed and attitude to complex problem solving resonates in all their work. The firm strives to be a true business partner to their clients rather than a compliance factory.

At the same time, they know how to have fun and let their hair down, ensuring the team are motivated to help mutual clients achieve their goals.

Gavin Fernandes

National Account Manager – Xero

Seamless Professional Expertise

In my dealings with Paul and Gavin, they demonstrate strong business acumen and accounting expertise, complementing each other and delivering work in a seamless way.

They make the effort to understand their clients and the businesses they are dealing with. Their approach is sensible, detailed and delivered with good humour when needed. They are prepared to put in the hard work and thought required to deliver outcomes and solve difficulties.

Committed Community Support

Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland has been fortunate to work with DFK Hirn Newey through both their staff and Senior Management Group for many years.

This partnership has produced numerous fundraising and support initiatives, from staff morning teas to corporate functions. Senior Management’s involvement shows the company’s strong commitment to community assistance.

Without the continual support from DFK Hirn Newey, many families with seriously ill children would not have accommodation during times of need. RMH SEQ is deeply appreciative of their ongoing support and contribution.
