Jason Osborne recently received the honour of being recognised as a Fellow of Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CAANZ). Fellowship recognises members who have achieved excellence in their career and contribution to the profession and to the community. It is particularly significant as it is bestowed by our peers. Fellows are required to have a strong set of personal values and high professional standards, but also a practical understanding of civic responsibility. Jason feels very honoured to be nominated by his peers and recognised by CAANZ for the work he has been doing over the years. 'Advancement to Fellow would not have been possible without the opportunities given to me by our fantastic local community, as well as the amazing support from all the team at Osborne Group and my wife Pip'.
The team at Osborne Group take great pride in delivery accounting services to the rural and farming industry. Jason was born and bred on a South Wairarapa dairy farm, so understands the issues that can occur. We are committed to aiding our clients in increasing productivity, thinking about the future, and growing profitable companies. Our experienced team are excited to help you succeed. No matter the type of farm or rural company you run, Osborne Group specialises in catering to your individuals needs.
Here at Osborne Group we take a day out of the office each year to help the community that supports us so much. In previous years we have installed worm farms for Lansdowne Residents' Association, and weeded and cleared the garden at Westside Play centre. Friday the 12th of November was Annual Community Day 2021. This year we decided to support 2 very worthy causes in our local community-Masterton FoodBank and Hospice Wairarapa Community Trust. The team headed to Masterton FoodBank to unpack and sort thousands of donated items from the FoodBank drive, ready for Christmas food parcels. As proud ambassadors of the Hospice Wairarapa, we joined the Annual Street Appeal, posted at Mitre 10 Mega. The Hospice's annual street appeal provides vital income to support the range of services they offer, free to anyone who is on a palliative journey in our community.
Here are some questions you should be asking of your Accountant. Do they: Know and understand your business? Have a genuine interest in helping make your business grow and be successful? Visit your business onsite at the coalface? Provide real quality that is measurable? Demonstrate pragmatic, practical solutions to your everyday business issues? Care about the other things in your business rather than just the numbers? Look to the future and not back at history? Use the latest cutting edge technology for your benefit? If the answer is no to any of the above questions, why not contact Osborne Group for a FREE, no obligation consultation that will allow you to experience the fresh face of accounting here in the Wairarapa.
