Our History – How MKS Group Began
Many years ago, I had the vision to work with business owners to make sure they get an awesome experience with their Accountant and Business Advisors.
This vision came as a result of the poor experience that my family endured during their time as Business Owners. I recall being in my first year of Uni back in 1985 when I had barely completed Accounting 101. My father wanted to understand his Profit & Loss report for his Squash Centre & Gym business. I suggested he makes an appointment with his Accountant – his response was “I have never had a meeting with him. He sends me this every year, and I just sign it.”
I could not believe this to be true – even to an 18-year-old, this seemed to be ridiculous. From that day on, I took over the bookkeeping for the business (on some sort of spreadsheet back then), and that is where my Accounting Career started. I thought to myself that this accountant my father had would have numerous clients all in the same position and I wanted to put a stop to it. Every business owner deserves to understand their financial results; how else can they make any informed decisions?

Our Vision
My vision is to make sure that Business Owners get to experience planning, know their financial position (not just by the bank balance) and get guidance on everything they do.
I teamed up with a Mentor Accountant who thought the same way as me – he offered me a job, and the rest is history. Over the years my client base has grown and so has my team. Every team member at MKS Group thinks and works the same way as I do – living to our values and beliefs and working closely with our clients. The ideal client for MKS Group is a Business Owner who is looking for guidance, wants to listen and takes on the advice, one who challenges us and takes advantage of all our service offerings.
That’s how my business started, and that’s why the clients I had in 1985 are still my clients today. Click here to see if you are an ideal MKS Group client.
