WHK Horwath Pty Ltd Who are we WHK Horwath is one of the largest accounting and financial services firms in Sydney with 36 Principals and over 300 staff providing the complete range of accounting, tax, financial planning corporate advisory services. We are part of the WHK Group Limited, an ASX listed company that is now the fifth largest accounting firm in Australia. We are a member of Horwath International, an affiliation of independent accounting and financial services firms and is ranked in the Top 10 accounting firms in the world. With more than 50 years of accounting experience and client successes under our belt, we have a great understanding of how to help businesses. We work with a diverse range of clients including privately held and publicly listed companies, trusts and partnerships, as well as individuals and family businesses. How we work with you While our size provides the “Top Tier” levels of expertise you would expect, we believe it is the way we work that makes us different. Clients tell us they want advisers who will help them achieve and manage their growth. They want responsible and accountable service from the top down and they want to know they are receiving first class advice about which they can be confident. Most importantly, they want to deal directly with advisers who will spend the time to understand their business (not just the numbers). It is one of the reasons we decided to open an office in Norwest Business Park – to be closer to clients, to be close to their business and to provide an even better level of service. Since opening our Norwest office in June 2005 our local team has grown from 5 to 35 – strong evidence of our ability to work with growing businesses. Our size means that we will bring you the right level of expertise. Our location means all WHK Horwath advisers can take the time to personally work with their clients.
