Our accounting expertise, your business success.

Meet Lauren - A Financial Expert with Global Experience

Lauren’s journey in finance began in 2005 when she started as a trainee accountant with a small, chartered accounting firm in regional New South Wales. While pursuing her Bachelor of Business (Accounting & Agribusiness), she gained hands-on experience that set the foundation for her career. After graduating, Lauren joined KPMG’s prestigious Graduate Program in Sydney and became a Chartered Accountant in 2010.

Her diverse professional background spans industries and continents, including:

  • A secondment with an Aboriginal partner organisation in Far North Queensland.

  • Player contract management for an elite sporting organisation.

  • Serving as Regional Finance and Human Resource Manager in Morocco.

  • Joining The Search with Rip Curl, the ultimate surfing company.

  • Establishing an in-home aged care service in the City of Greater Geelong. 

As a seasoned global financial manager, Lauren combines a strategic, big-picture mindset with meticulous attention to detail—an essential balance for navigating complex financial tasks. Her expertise spans a wide range of financial systems, including Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, SAP, and Microsoft Dynamics, making her a versatile and reliable partner for any business.

After four years of adventure and globetrotting with the Intrepid Group—the world’s largest adventure travel company—Lauren sought a lifestyle change. This desire for balance inspired her to launch Auburn Advisory, where she delivers tailored financial solutions with a personal touch.

Now based on Victoria’s stunning Surf Coast, Lauren enjoys a laid-back lifestyle with her husband and two sons while working remotely with clients across various industries.

Whether you’re a small business owner or a growing enterprise, Lauren is ready to elevate your financial management—because she’s so much more than just a bookkeeper.

Why are our services important to your business?

Accuracy - your financial records will be accurately maintained which helps you to make informed business decisions, providing evidence for tax purposes, and tracking the financial health of your business.

Savings - outsourcing will save time and money that would otherwise be spent on hiring and training someone in-house, allowing you to focus on other aspects of the business and increase productivity.

Improvement - when the books are in order, they provide valuable insights into a business’s financial health such as better cash flow management, identification of nonprofitable business areas or pinpointing where money is being spent to reduce unnecessary spend.

Compliance - all businesses need to comply with taxation obligations so by keeping accurate records and following proper accounting procedures, businesses can prevent penalties and legal issues.
