Account Manager Directory

About Andrew
I grew up with a SMB family business. Spent 10 years as an accountant, advising SMBs. SMBs are my life and I am passionate about using technology to grow their businesses.

About Jann 

Passionate about small business owners having the right information, on time, to make informed business decisions that help them to become successful. I have over 18 years experience in SMB accounting.  

About Sam

Over 5 years experience in public practice dealing with SMEs across a number of firms of varying size, with exposure to a variety of software, clients and industries.

About Amy

I come from two very contrasting set of backgrounds; firstly I worked in 3 different accounting firms for around 5 years who had all converted to Xero. In this time I was able to work closely with clients and given responsibilities on teaching the software to junior accountants and clients. Secondly, I worked as a special effects makeup artist and trainer for over 4 years, and was lucky enough to work on some big feature films like Kong Skull Island and Thor Ragnarok and teach my prosthetic skills to students through makeup schools and privately run workshops.

My passions soon evolved to techonlogy in both areas and the efficiencies that can be had if utilised correctly.

About Justin

My SMB accounting experience consists of working with small businesses when I was an accountant and as an employment consultant.

About Michelle

With a background in accounting in various roles and listed entities, I have experienced change in systems and processes and look forward to working with partners as they initiate change and grow in the changing accounting environment.

About Scott

I started my professional career as an External Auditor, initially in Government and then for a mid-tier firm here in Brisbane. After sometime I noticed my true motivator was helping clients improve their business processes. As such I moved to consulting and here now to Account Manager at Xero. In this new role I am able utilise my knowledge of having seen the internal workings of hundreds of small businesses to provide the best possible advice that I can.

In my spare time I work as a Tour Guide in Brisbane's Mount Tamborine wine region, and play Goal Defence in a local netball team.

About Kerry

Coming from a background which includes both tax accounting and bookkeeping, as well as running my own practice through Xero, I am well placed to understand the needs of all Xero partners. Embracing the future of cloud accounting can and should be an exciting process. My role is to make this happen!

About Richie

I have over 14 years of experience working in public practice for small and mid-tier firms, using Xero to transform the lives of many small business owners. 

About Debbie

Started my bookkeeping practice in the November of 1999 just in time for the GST rollout, you know, when the controversy of GST on a hot chicken versus GST on a Cold Chicken. We have come a long way since then. Lots has changed especially in the number crunching industry all thanks to Xero! At first I was a bit skeptical but then I bit the bullet and moved myself and all my clients to Xero and did not look back!

I am passionate about our industry and especially supporting Sole Practitioners as they have so many hats to wear and it can be a lonely existence making all types of business decisions with only oneself to discuss with. So this position I have taken on with Xero has allowed me to be that support person, and to educate our partners on all the amazing tools that Xero has to streamline and automate with those mandatory and pesky compliance processes.

And Xero also has some pretty cool bells and whistles to help our community be more appealing and appreciated in the general business community. They think we number crunchers are boring and that couldn't be further from the truth especially when we have Xero to back us up!  

About Matt

Love digital business, passionate about people, teams and partners doing the best work of their lives - being happy, healthy, impactful and loving what they do.

About Amy 

For the last two years I have worked as a Xero Account Manager, before recently moving into the role of Senior Account Manager. Prior to joining Xero, I worked as a Chartered Accountant for many years. I have fond memories of helping one firm – as their Xero Champion – get to Gold Partner status; so helping others reach their goals is something I love doing.

About Matthew

I’ve recently joined Xero and I have just come out of working in public practice for three and a half years doing compliance and business services. Whilst in practice I also completed my CPA.

Prior to joining the Xero family, I was assisting small to medium sized businesses with their tax compliance and providing advice as a qualified Chartered Accountant. I have been fortunate enough to gain invaluable insights on what makes SMBs succeed and look forward to using my experiences to guide our partners through their own Xero journey.

Outside of work, I am a passionate fan of basketball (NBA!) and enjoy going on hikes.

About Sophie

My background is in sales and marketing and for the last 6 years I've been working with software for small business. I love partnering with Accountants and Bookkeepers to help them leverage cloud technology, freeing them up to do what they do best. Please get in touch to discuss how I can help your business.

About Beatrice

Having worked closely with accountants in my previous job, I could see how Xero has been able to benefit practices and their customers. I am a believer of the Xero product and am extremely excited to be part of this amazing team to help partners and small businesses thrive. Outside of work, I love being active and am always challenging myself with new fitness targets.

About Mark 

I hold a bachelor of Commerce (Major in Accounting) and am a fully qualified Chartered Accountant. After spending 7 years in public practice I joined Xero in July 2014, where I'm now passionate about driving process improvement among the practices I work with, and helping them work on strategies to become real-time, data driven practices. 

A combination of experience within the bookkeeping and business management space and spending the past two years at Xero as a Small Business Specialist has given me a great insight to how a practice can be successful and what they can do to make both their business and their clients thrive. 

About Spiros

I have been part of the Xero family for over four years helping accountants, bookkeepers and business owners get the most out of Xero for their business. I have a keen interest in anything related to science and football. I love to learn about new things every day and keep up to date with the latest technology.

Over eight years in practice, I saw businesses struggle to view how their business was tracking at any one time and lacking timely advice. In my most recent firm I was instrumental in implementing Xero as a platform for SMBs, enabling them to streamline, grow their business, and have greater access to business advice.

At Xero, I help partners work smarter with their client base and roll out more service offerings. Outside of work, I explore a new country each year  – picking the next country out of a hat!

I believe that we need to educate the youth of tomorrow in the principles of business and entrepreneurship as it enables them to understand the fundamentals of running a business.
