CONTROL YOUR BUSINESS 2004 - PRESENT
Control Your Business (CYB) is an advisory, accounting and taxation practice with special emphasis on family business and succession planning. While practicing as a sole trader Chartered Accountant since 1978, Graeme encountered many firms facing unique challenges. Some far beyond the scope of traditional chartered accountancy work. Graeme then developed a specialised service delivering quality support for businesses facing crises.
As an Accredited Family Business Advisor, he assists family members to manage their unique challenges positively. Graeme also helps to protect family and business interests, support growth and implement succession planning. He is also experienced in resolving instances of “sibling rivalry,” that so often conflicts with the wishes of the founding generation – and vice versa.
CYB meets the needs of a widely diverse group of SMEs, small and family businesses. Having seen them through the tough times, Graeme continues to collaborate closely with the owners to facilitate business continuity, turnaround, and business growth. CYB still retains a very dedicated and competent accounting and taxation service. Control Your Business offers complete business solutions from the one provider.

DIRECTOR & OWNER
www.penrithservicedoffices.com.au
In 2013, while relocating his office to the CBD of Penrith, Graeme saw an opportunity to establish a Serviced Office Business in conjunction with his advisory practice.
Penrith Serviced Offices (PSO) commenced in 2013 and has a service offering second to none in this rapidly expanding area of Western Sydney. PSO offer a friendly, flexible service that closely matches a Corporate Business Office with a dedicated receptionist to look after the individual needs of our clients.
Notwithstanding COVID-19, in August 2020 PSO expanded its facilities with the addition of another ten rooms on Level 2 of 331 High Street, most of which can hold 3-6 + people. The ideal home for small work hubs and satellite offices.
CHARTED ACCOUNTANT 1974 - 2004
In 1978, Graeme ventured out as a sole practitioner and commenced his own chartered accountancy practice at Springwood in the Blue Mountains.
Between 1978 and 2004 the practice grew rapidly. The focus was on a combination of traditional accounting and taxation services, while developing expertise in advisory services for small business.
Towards the end of this period Graeme recognised the need to go beyond traditional chartered accountancy services and rebranded to Control Your Business.
PEAT MARWICK MITCHELL 1973 - 1978
(Now KPMG)
In 1973, Graeme joined Peat Marwick Mitchell, one of the “big four” accounting practices of the seventies. For the next six years he progressed rapidly to become one of the youngest audit managers.
During these years, Graeme was involved at a high level in the audit of major public companies such as Clutha Mines; Nestle; Ready Mixed Concrete; Boral and Noah’s Hotel Group.
Overall, the seventies were interesting years for Australian business and the experience
