About.
We take a broader view than just the numbers.
Affinity provides accounting, business advisory, taxation and technology solutions to businesses, not-for-profits and investors.
These services are not just around ticking boxes, but rather focused on the clients’ distinct goals to help them achieve successful results. To do this we understand that relationships are a vital part of making this happen as everyone’s goals and ambitions are unique.
This is where our name “Affinity” was born – “having an understanding of someone or something”. Because working closely with our clients puts us in a better position to make an impact in our clients’ businesses and ultimately, realise their potential.
