Back To Top
We offer an extensive range of advice and services to enable
clients to maximise their business. Core activities include the
following:
Audit and
Assurance
Our Audit and Assurance procedures go beyond providing an
opinion on the financial statements. To be effective, assurance
work demands a deep understanding of our client's business, its
goals and the market in which it operates. Once we have that under
our belt, we can step back from the raw numbers of financial
statements to see the real business issues underneath. This enables
us to identify real opportunities for efficiencies and savings for
our clients. Our client base includes a number of medium to large
businesses operating in various sectors in New Zealand and abroad.
The diversity and the nature of our work will provide you with an
excellent understanding of business operations. With our training
and audit experience, you will have unlimited career
opportunities.
We have a "paperless" audit approach and all our audit staff are
provided with the appropriate technology to enable this. Staples
Rodway uses sophisticated audit evaluation and analytical tools
that help us identify risk and opportunities facing our clients'
businesses.
We provide assurance work for:
- Due diligence for mergers and acquisitions
- Prospectus reports
- Statutory audits
- Reports on compliance with agreements and regulations
- International financial reporting standards
- Computer system security and computer application controls
- Software licensing audits
- Fraud investigations
As an Audit and Assurance graduate, you will have completed your
NZICA requirements and demonstrate skills that will enable you to
engage and work alongside our clients.
Business Advisory
Services
Our Business Advisory Services unit includes top graduates
through to qualified business advisors. Many are skilled business
people in their own right or have extensive experience within
particular specialties. Therefore, while a client's primary contact
with Staples Rodway may handle most of their affairs, they can (and
frequently do) call on the specialist advice of others whenever the
situation arises.
As a result all our clients benefit from the combined experience
of our different units and you get the exposure to a full realm of
different work. Our clients cover a broad range of New Zealand and
overseas businesses including high value individuals through to
multi-million dollar turnover trading clients. As a graduate you
will have the ability to work closely with and be mentored by
directors who have achieved some outstanding accomplishments
throughout their own careers.
As a Business Advisory Services graduate, you'll be advising our
clients on:
- Financial accounts for companies, sole traders, partnerships
and trusts
- Preparation and lodgment of Inland Revenue returns and
calculation and payment of taxes due
- Compliance with the Companies Act 1993 including filing of
annual returns
- Management accounting, budgeting and forecasting
- Developing outsourcing solutions
- Monitoring and management of trusts, including gifting and day
to day operations
Our Business Advisory Services graduates are dedicated to
providing the best advice to our clients. You will have completed
your NZICA requirements or be very close to doing so.

Most business owners appreciate the importance of controlling
costs, but many still miss legitimate opportunities to minimise

year of your career with our Business Advisory Services unit
