Testimonials
Andrew and the team at NCS Group have been supporting my business with accounting advice and services since I first set up shop in 2010. I love their personal touch, their responsiveness and - above all else - their integrity. What you get from these guys represents excellent value for money.
Simon Dowling, Facilitator, Educator, Advisor, Speaker, Founder and Managing Director of 2engage
I have been working with Andrew from NCS Group for just over 6 months since we were first introduced during 2017. I have found his willingness and dedication to helping my business and cleaning up my accounting mess very refreshing. I am often surprised on how quick he responds and I am finally feeling that I have a partner which I can work with, and who knows the business and can help me make better decisions moving forward. I had previously an accountant for over 20 years that I see once or twice a year that did the necessary things as an accountant but Andrew by far exceeded what my expectations of an accountant can offer

The team at NCS Group Chartered Accountants is an indispensable part of Digital Presence! They have taken the time to learn about our business, and about us, to be able to provide the best advice and guide us in our financial growth. I have the highest regard for the professionalism and courtesy Andrew Nicholls and all of the staff at NCS Group have been providing us. I feel that our business runs extremely efficiently now that they have truly partnered with us in order to keep us on track all the time. I have no hesitation in recommending NCS Group Chartered Accountants to prospective clients.
Olga Ramos, Managing Director, Digital Presence Solutions Pty Ltd
I engaged Andrew from the NCS Group as my business accountant and advisor in 2008 before I had my first client and I'm glad I did. He and the team have assisted with every aspect of setting up and running the financials of my company. The team are quick to respond to queries and are always proactive in providing key dates and relevant information for business owners. I would highly recommend the NCS Group and in fact have suggested several of my clients and business colleagues get in touch with NCS Group to make sure they are getting the best quality and best possible advice and support.

As Advisory Board Chair of Victorian Leaders and Director of Buchanan Success Coaching, I have had a lot to do with Andrew and NCS. On every occasion, I have not had the slightest bad experience. Andrew conducts himself with great professionalism, integrity and with a keen eye for getting the job done. The way that Andrew behaves is very much a part of the way that everyone goes about business on the NCS team.

Being an Australian based subsidiary of a much larger Global organisation can always be challenging, especially when managing the financials, however having a local team like NCS working with us continues to make our life a lot easier so we can focus on the business, instead of the books. Andrew, Sharryn and their team of skilled and extremely personable professionals have helped manage our financial and taxation needs on a daily, weekly and annual basis since our establishment in 2010. This includes not only our local financial reporting, payroll and taxation obligations but additionally, our obligations to our Scandinavian head office and their reporting and taxation requirements. In fact our Global CFO and Finance Department in Sweden have acknowledged their timely communications and reporting efficiency, year on year and congratulate them for being one of the best performing teams supporting our Group’s Finance Departments globally. Beyond “the books”, NCS has continued to offer advice, direction and wisdom over the years and we are a more organised and educated business because of their ability to support us in a manner that suits our company’s requirements.

Carolyn & Richie Miles, Co-Founders, Surrey Hills Garden Supplies
As a start-up Advertising and Production company, our accounting requirements were modest. However, as our business grew, it became apparent that for us to remain focused on continued growth, we needed the ongoing support of experts to steer us through increasingly complex issues such as compliance, company structure, XERO support and legal agreements. NCS was recommended by a trusted colleague and, from our first meeting with Andrew, we felt reassured and confident. What began as a process of initial setup has evolved into a true partnership, helping to drive business growth and maximise the rules of the corporate structure. We have come to rely on the expertise of the entire NCS team, with them acting almost as an extension of our business. They keep it simple and they’re a great team to deal with. In addition, NCS has provided introductions to specialist resources as we’ve needed them. Sound advice and timely delivery of outcomes are obvious benchmarks against which the NCS team continues to deliver. But it’s the sense of partnership and a desire to help us achieve our goals that means we see Two Tractors working with NCS long into the future.
Andy Gaunt & Rick Hargreaves, Directors, Two Tractors
Andrew, Sharryn and the team at NCS have been looking after my personal and business taxation and finances for nearly 15 years. Their professionalism, service and dedication to me as a client is what keeps me coming back, and why I have no hesitation to recommend them to all of my friends, colleagues and associates. NCS has made it so easy to set up my company, and look after all my taxation and compliance needs, making it far easier for me to concentrate on growing my business rather than worrying about endless paperwork. I am always made to feel welcome and appreciated, and they always have the answers to my questions. I look forward to another 15 years with NCS Group.
Robert Ford, CEO, Victorian Leaders
We engaged NCS Group early in 2018. Andrew and his team made the process of changing accountants seamless and smooth. Andrew’s professionalism, communication and attention to detail made me and Lachy feel confident that we had made the right choice from very early on in the transition. Thank you to the NCS team for helping us in our journey and we look forward to many years of success together!
Mark Eggers, Co-Founder & Head of Sales, Yarno. Lachy Gray, Co-Founder & Head of Product, Yarno
I wanted to call out how happy we are at being part of the NCS family. It was a big move for us to change accountants, and we both couldn’t be happier with how things have landed. The level of service you guys provide is second to none.
Mark Eggers, Co-Founder & Head of Sales, Yarno
Yarra Yarra Rowing Club (YYRC) is a community-based club run by volunteers. It has no paid staff and has been a constant presence in the Melbourne and Victorian rowing scene since 1872. Andrew has been YYRC’s Treasurer since May 2014. During this time the club has experienced unprecedented membership growth (25%). This has brought many challenges - the need for large capital outlays in boats and improvements to our rowing shed, investments in coaching, and improvements in how we manage the club including its finances. Andrew has guided us through this growth and brought a high degree of professionalism in the management of the club’s finances, and in the governance of how we conduct our affairs. As a result, YYRC continues to prosper. Andrew has also been a strong advocate and proactive in encouraging school leavers to continue with and take up rowing. We are privileged that Andrew is Treasurer of YYRC and proud to recommend him and the NCS team.

NCS Group has been along for the journey with Impact HR Group since its inception in February 2020, supporting the accounting functions of the business. The team and I have built great relationships with Andrew and his supporting team during this time. They have proven to be a great support, providing sound advice and razor-sharp accuracy in their work. Andrew and his team are an absolute pleasure to deal with. The service provided has been and continues to be exceptional. Thank you Andrew and the NCS team for providing peace of mind and allowing Impact HR Group do what we are best at whilst you take care of the accounting!
