we’re a couple of entrepreneurs that happen to be accountants
and we want to change the way accounting is done. read our story below
we are 2 entrepreneurs that happen to be accountants. our journeys began separately with us both training in small accounting practices where our love of working with growing businesses began. we both made moves to PwC and worked in different capacities (through cycles in assurance and consulting) where we first met as founding members of the My Financepartner team. with a combined 25 years experience working with growing businesses and getting the bug working with entrepreneurs; we decided to create flinder, combining our passion of helping other businesses grow, whilst creating our own.
oh, and the name? it’s phonetically dutch for butterfly because we want to help your business evolve
(and remember, a small change can have a profound impact)

we’re probably a bit like you…
we got itchy feet and wanted to start something ourselves. we saw a gap in the market and wanted to do things a little differently. we wanted to reinvent accounting and be more, well, us. we wanted to do things that are not always possible in a large corporate. we wanted to use cool technology to really help businesses grow and we wanted to have absolute control of our own destiny…
