Pitcher the difference
Pitcher Partners has the resources and depth of expertise of a major firm, but
with a smaller firm feel. We give our clients the highest level of personal service
and attention. That’s the difference.
Pitcher Partners is an association of accounting and
business advisory firms located in Melbourne, Sydney,
Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane and Newcastle. We have a
strong reputation for providing personal service and
quality commercial advice to our clients across a broad
range of industries.

Audit and Assurance
The cost and effort of compliance with financial
regulations is an increasing burden on business. We
believe audit and assurance should add value to the
organisation by identifying opportunities as well as risks.
Furthermore, we understand the importance of working
closely with Boards of Directors and Audit Committees to
resolve audit issues within the agreed timeframe and work
to deliver a truly value added service.
Business Advisory
Through close and active involvement in our
clients’ business, Pitcher Partners provides informed,
practical assistance to make the most of opportunities and
emerging issues. We ensure the advice we give is practical
and takes into account the full set of circumstances facing
the company.
Business Consulting
Our consultants work collaboratively with senior
management and stakeholders to deliver measurable
outcomes. We use approaches and methodologies in the
conduct of assignments that are founded and renewed
on leading edge thinking, whilst maintaining commercial
relevance and practicality. Areas of expertise include
strategic business planning, feasibility studies, viability
studies, contract negotiations, financial analysis and
modelling, and organisational reviews.
Business Recovery and Insolvency
Even the healthiest business will come into
contact with an insolvency situation at some time. It
could be one of your suppliers, or perhaps a problem
debtor. Pitcher Partners has developed a reputation for
providing organisations with a range of Business Recovery
and Insolvency services that are successful in achieving
maximum recovery levels.
Corporate Finance
Corporate transactions are not an end in
themselves, but part of the progress towards a goal – be
it growth, higher profitability, improved market share or
competitive advantage. Pitcher Partners has extensive
experience providing independent advice on investments
and business transactions. We work quickly, providing
excellent response and value for money.
Investment Advisory
We provide our clients with rigorously researched
and customised investment advice suitable to the needs,
objectives and risk profiles of each individual family, fund
or Not for Profit organisation. At Pitcher Partners we offer
clients fee only service that is truly independent.
IT Consulting
With an in-depth understanding of business, we
are able to provide independent advice and create tailored
IT solutions that provide real benefits. We have experience
in developing unique solutions, running complex projects
and delivering value to clients.
Private Clients
We have an in-depth understanding of the
profit drivers and key performance indicators for private
businesses as well as the commercial and business
imperatives underpinning their success. We have a full
view of our client’s financial situation including both
business and personal affairs as well as an understanding
of the ramifications of legislative changes. Our complete
service approach means we can provide business related
advice to take account of personal long-term goals as well.
Risk Services
We are able to undertake a broad range of
risk management services to support our audit efforts
including enterprise risk management, internal audit,
disaster recovery and business continuity planning,
advanced data mining and specialised information
technology security assurance.
Superannuation
We also have extensive experience in the
superannuation industry, working with trustees, members
and employers. Our experience covers all segments of the
industry: large fund compliance, self- managed funds,
administration, employer obligations, member retirement
planning and estate planning.

taxation advisory team in Australia outside the Big 4

of taxation law supported by a large team of experienced
professionals who can manage any issue regardless of size
