Who you have in your circle matters

(You know this better than most!)

Tradie businesses rely on their team more than others. With multiple projects, deadlines and services, they depend on timeliness, integrity and high standards. 

As it happens, so do we.

Andrew McVinish

Founder, coach, tax expert, amateur gardener

I started Lightbeam for two reasons. First, I’m a total believer in work/life balance; you can be a business owner and have free time too. I want that for myself and for the entrepreneurs I work with. Secondly, I love numbers and, more importantly, I love using them to create a business strategy that gets my clients where they want to go in life.

If I’m not working with our (truly) awesome clients, I’m messing around with the kids or getting stuck into the garden. And when the kids aren’t around? I’m out playing tennis or enjoying good wine with my wife.

OUR CLIENTS SAY

Andrew built my confidence and straight away I started to look at the next year. Every quarter, every month, payroll tax, he looked at how we can be more efficient in tax depreciation, and working out the schemes after covid. What I love about Lightbeam is the complete trust we have. I can either leave Andrew to it or have insightful conversations with him. Either way, I know my business is in good hands.
