Charlene Purcell

Director

I started my accounting career in Wellington 24 years ago after graduating with a Bachelor of Business Studies(Accounting) from Massey University.  Over the years I have had the pleasure of working with a large array of clients ranging from individuals, family trusts through to larger corporates and everything in between.

I have also served my time in a cow shed &feeding calves so have a special interest in the agriculture industry. I work closely with my clients to ensure they can sleep at night knowing we are looking after their tax obligations and providing support to help them achieve their business goals.  Outside of work I love watching my children play sport, trying not to be that parent on the side-line, and camping off the grid down the Coast.  Two of my proudest achievements would be bungy jumping off the Pipeline in Queenstown and starting Switch Accountants – jumping off a stable platform was a bit like taking the step away from a guaranteed wage to business ownership – scary!
