If you have any land with development potential give us a call and we will be happy to discuss how to unlock the potential of your property.
Andrea Scatchard
Deloitte is pleased to announce the recent appointment of Andrea Scatchard as a Tax Partner. She has particular expertise in GST and employment tax.
Andrea joined Deloitte in 1995 and has been based in the Bay of Plenty since early 2005 – embracing flexible work options well before it was a common practice in New Zealand workplaces.
Andrea’s promotion to Partner is a recognition of both her skillset and the growing demand from businesses in Tauranga and surrounding areas. 1 April 2021 will see the implementation of a number of tax changes, including the increase in the top personal tax rate and corresponding raise of the default FBT rate. If your organisation needs assistance in navigating these changes then Andrea is your go-to expert in the region.
Patricia Buchanan
Donaldson Brown are excited to announce that Patricia Buchanan has joined the Bay of Plenty team as a Risk Adviser.
Patricia brings with her 15 years insurance experience, a passion for doing the right thing and a proven track record of delivering great customers experiences.
These skills align completely with Donaldson Brown’s commitment to total transparency and customer focused solutions. Patricia is looking forward to providing business owners with unconflicted advice on the risks they face, rather than simply selling more insurance.
