NICOLA WONG, CA
Director
My name is Nicola Wong and I am the founder of Bookkeeping Mums. I am kiwi born and bred but the Aussies have also adopted me! I have called Melbourne home for over 10 years. The seed for Bookkeeping Mums was planted 8 years ago with the idea of supporting all the talented working parents that I know, providing them with the support and empowerment they need to re-enter the workforce. People like me – a Chartered Accountant with a wealth of experience with a dilemma on who was picking up the kids after school! I’m so excited the seed is now getting a chance to grow and I want everyone to know that you can have the best of both worlds!
I’ve been a business owner for over 10 years and I have owned, operated, set up, cleaned up and maintained the financial aspect of businesses in may different industries. Over the years I’ve had the privilege to gain a wealth of knowledge about operating a business. I’ve even pulled my hair out working with my husband! Through Bookkeeping Mums I have met so many wonderful business owners and entrepreneurs, all talented in the art of sales but frustrated with the lack of financial clarity in their business. I love getting my hands dirty helping build, improve and grow a business and I love doing it with people who I can trust and who trust me.
My qualifications and memberships include Bachelor Degrees in Accounting and Law, Chartered Accountant, Registered BAS Agent and a Xero Certified Advisor. I’ve worked with Ernst & Young and have co-founded a successful niche café in Melbourne’s CBD (and can now make a decent café latte!).
