Astra Accounting was founded in 2011. Olivia has been involved with Astra Accounting since 2018, and in 2022 she purchased the company.

Olivia comes from a family of accountants and the original dream was to work in the family business. As much as I tried to find a more 'creative' career, I couldn't deny the satisfaction of numbers and balancing.

Since being involved in Astra Accounting I saw a different side to accounting and remote bookkeeping which intrigued me. I soon came to love working alongside small businesses and helping manage their finances so they could focus on other important aspects of their business. I get pure satisfaction knowing that as small as 1 hour a month can be a huge help to small business owners.

Book Keeper

About Olivia

I am an experienced bookkeeper with 15+ years of experience in a wide range of industries. I have worked in the past for both private and international accounting firms, including WHK/Crowe Horwath in Australia. I have also worked for a range of different small businesses in Administration and Accounts. I believe that having a great deal of hands-on experience in office administration gave me the insight that one size does not fit all.

I pride myself in building and maintaining trust with my clients' and ensuring that I add value to their businesses. I have great attention to detail and am eager to not only meet clients' needs, but to exceed their expectations.

Born and raised in Nelson, I later moved to Australia where I found myself a good Aussie bloke. We fell in love with the outdoors of New Zealand, so we ended up moving back to Nelson in 2014 and then to Darfield (Canterbury) 2023. As a family we enjoy biking, swimming and DIY projects around the house.
