Hayes Knight New Zealand is based in Auckland, with an office in Albany and two offices in Newmarket. We have a highly experienced, energetic team with specialist knowledge and experience in accounting, auditing, taxation, business improvement, accounting software systems, financial management, succession planning and sustainability consulting.
Our size also allows us to keep it personal. An intimate understanding of your business can only be achieved by getting to know you and how you like to work.
How will working beyond the numbers benefit your business?
Business can change fast and the numbers are only part of the game plan. We work closely with our clients to add rigour to their business planning.
Here are some of the ways we can assist you beyond the numbers:
- Rather than just work the numbers, we interpret them. By teaching you to understand them, you are better equipped to make bold and powerful financial decisions.
- Our contacts are your contacts, and some of them will be able to positively influence your business.
- We can negotiate on your behalf.
- We can help you plan for your business next step and then help you to implement it.
- We don't wait for instructions. It's in our DNA to be at all times proactive; we regularly bring ideas to you.
We can take care of your business overseas
Think global. Act local. While we can't claim authorship of this fantastic phrase we certainly live by it. As well as our close association with the Hayes Knight Group in Australia we are also affiliated with Morison International Group, a global association of independent member firms represented in over 270 cities around the world.

"Thanks to monthly meetings with Hayes Knight, we anticipated the downturn and took corrective action that included changing our business model and finding a new bank with larger and more flexible funding lines. In the 10 years since starting, we've worked with Hayes Knight to create not just a series of contracting jobs, but a genuine business. For example, they encouraged us to set a revenue target of $1 million per month, which I never imagined was possible. But then they showed us how we could involve staff to achieve the goal, which we did and then had a major party to celebrate. We don't see them as just our accountants, it's like they're actually part of our business." Phil George Managing Director Rockhard Civil and Drainage

"The audit reports presented by Hayes Knight have been approved at our annual general meetings without questions or debate. Hayes Knight has advised Property Council on a number of successful business initiatives that have made significant improvements to how our organisation approaches banking and accountancy. Following your advice, we have now integrated our Branch and National Office banking systems, saving time and money. Hayes Knight also advised the Property Council to renew our treasury functions. We have done this and are now maximising our returns. The auditors at Hayes Knight have developed a close working relationship with our organisation. This has enabled the Property Council to audit our accounts in a smooth and timely manner. We highly recommend Hayes Knight to any business that requires accounting services."

"Hayes Knight's input into our business has not only been with our financial accounts, accounting systems, and tax advice as one would expect, but equally importantly, we have had a Hayes Knight Director involved in our business by way of attendance at quarterly Board meetings and assisting with strategic planning and advice. After several years Hayes Knight has become very familiar with all aspects of our business and they have offered us invaluable advice that has allowed us to grow our business steadily and responsibly. Hayes Knight gives us the kind of personal service that we at Kalmar like to provide all our own clients. It is always a pleasure dealing with the team." Peter Kay Director Kalmar Construction

"To grow your business in the right way without losing focus you need the right advice. You want someone not just with technical skills but who shares your vision for growing the business. They should ask questions like, 'How are you developing your business?' or 'What structure best suits your kind of growth?' We realised the only way to grow the business was to bring in shareholders and relinquish some control. Aaron's been on side to ensure our balance sheets are clean and that we're holding shareholder funds in the company in a way that's appropriate and fair for all parties. At the end of the day, Aaron and the Hayes Knight team have made a difference because they are very in touch with our vision. They 'get' the brand and despite the risks and challenges in it, have kept us positively focused on the long term." Mick Murphy Owner Kokako

"The Hayes Knight name had come up a number of times, so we went and checked them out and we liked what we saw. "Hayes Knight wants things to deliver benefit to the business and if they can't see a compelling reason why something should be done, then they won't do it. For us, that's probably the most valuable thing about working with them. You become accustomed to running a company at a certain size, and when it triples, what used to be adequate is no longer enough. Hayes Knight has been really good at putting the right systems in place for us. In terms of our financial advice from Hayes Knight, I feel like we got a hole in one." David Kelly Chief Executive Zeald

“Hayes Knight has been our accountant since we started in business in 1998. While the beans get counted regularly in a very professional manner, it is the extra services, information and training opportunities that we receive that make the difference. We get invited to information and training sessions where appropriate and have one-on-one sessions with them on a regular basis to discuss our monthly accounts and to look for future business opportunities. A memorable meeting was when Hayes Knight advised us that if we were to change the financial structure of our business we would save several thousand dollars a year - every year, how often do you get this advice? Hayes Knight acts as a business consultant and mentor; making us think outside the square and keeping us accountable. Everyone you come in to contact with at Hayes Knight treats you professionally and has a smile on their faces.” Neville Dodds Managing Director Omni Products Limited

”As an overseas owned company with two diverse business operations in New Zealand, Irwin Industrial Tool Company expects auditing and accounting services from a company with skilled staff and up to date resources, and which is part of an international group. We felt that we could only get this level of service from a 'Big Four' company, but when cost constraints forced us to look at alternatives we found that Hayes Knight could provide all the services we required. With their direct approach and open communication right up to Director level, Hayes Knight has helped us understand where potential problems are in our business, and have kept us up to date with legislative changes that impact on our reporting. As well as making financial year end less stressful, it has been valuable for us to have them review our business systems and recommend changes. With their friendly team, Hayes Knight’s involvement with our company has been positive for our business and is welcomed by our staff.” Mick Sweetman Finance Manager Irwin Industial Tool Company
