What our clients say
“We engaged JD Scott & Co to assist us with year end financial reporting. They are a highly professional firm, with deep experience and provided us with quality solutions”
We retained JD Scott & Co to assist us in preparing a forecast model for the expansion of our business. They were able to tackle complex problems and succinctly communicate solutions for us.
I found JD Scott & Co fairly randomly through a Google search, and I'm so happy I did. James has been very responsive, got on top of our overdue stuff very quickly, has been very patient in explaining things to me and proactive in flagging potential areas to investigate for savings or other benefits. Thanks James!
James assisted us greatly over a difficult year end period. He was able to promptly get on top of the issues and put forward workable solutions, by coupling strong technical skills with practical experience. I will strongly recommend JD Scott & Co. to Finance leaders that need personalised attention from a senior, experienced finance professional as a credible alternative to bigger firms.
Great service and support by James and his friendly team across various topics. Worked with them for the past 2 years, highly recommended.
James has been excellent and knowledgable, even providing advice outside of our agreed arrangement for BAS and Business Accounting.
JD SCott +Co has been a great help in getting our tax situation sorted.
At Centricity Wealth we started working with James in 2020 needing help with year-end reporting and to tidy up the tax for our small business. From the start, James made sure to understand where we were at with our accounting and to determine what needed to be done to tidy up our tax. Having helped us to get on top of things, he continued to support us with practical solutions and advice. Working with James gives us peace of mind that our accounting is taken care of and having someone so experienced in our corner, makes all the difference.

Business Planning is the key to Success
Whether you’re just starting out or have been in business for decades, success only comes with planning.
A business plan captures all the core elements of what you’re trying to achieve, from what you’re selling, who you’re selling it to, how you deliver it and how you measure success.
But planning can be hard if you’re not sure where to begin. Our business planning template is a guide to help you on your way. It sets out the key areas to consider and offers tips and suggestions to help you complete your plan.
