Our Staff
TRUMANS’ FOUR EXPERIENCED PARTNERS build strong relationships with our clients. A partner assumes prime responsibility for every assignment and client we take on. For larger clients, we appoint two partners and a manager, so you will always have access to someone who knows your business inside out. Our partners are supported by a well-trained and committed staff of around twenty people. Our high staff retention rate means continuity of key people working with you – we develop a strong understanding of both your business and your industry.
Our Partners
All of our partners are members of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia. To maintain their membership of this important professional body, chartered accountants undertake education additional to their university degree and commit to continuing education throughout their professional lives. They also comply with the Institute’s professional and ethical standards.
