Amanda Gascoigne

Managing Director - Amanda Gascoigne Consulting

Amanda is a chartered accountant, coach and mentor to small and solo accounting practices nationally and internationally. She draws on her 25+ years’ experience in the accounting industry, 18 of those in her own regional NSW practice that she started from scratch.

Amanda's passion has always been accounting, small business and helping business owners have businesses and lifestyles they love. Most practice owners establish their own practices for more money, more satisfaction and to have more freedom and flexibility however this is far from reality for many.

COVID-19 has stretched the already precious time and resources of practice owners even further, has in some cases eaten into practice profitability and cashflow and has magnified stress and anxiety levels at the already busy time of the financial year.

Amanda has a Facebook group for accountants, aptly named “The Balanced Firm” and within this group, across other social media platforms, her blogs, presentations and 1:1 and group coaching, she inspires, empowers and provides strategies and support to help practice owners have better practices and better lives.
