Nick Zoras
Goodwin Chivas & Co
Partner
B.Bus CPA JP

Hi, my name is Nick Zoras and I have been with Goodwin Chivas & Co for over 12 years.

Apart from my expertise in taxation and accounting (Bachelor of Business Major Accounting / Sub Major Law) my passion is helping our business clients grow their business, create wealth, seize a business opportunity and meet any potential issues along the way, and there are many of these.

The benefit for our clients is that they can draw from my vast experience in these areas:-

To me, my role as an advisor has always been more than numbers.

I am very passionate about the role I play with my clients and understand the importance of being part of their management group.

I like nothing better than being part of a team, strategizing an opportunity with a client and then making that opportunity happen.

My thoughts:-

  • Today’s business environment is extremely challenging.
  • Business owners are faced with a myriad of changes, challenges, opportunities and threats to their organizations constantly.
  • At times quick decisions are required and other moments a detailed analysis of a potential opportunity will need to be undertaken with assistance in any negotiation.
  • Meeting these ongoing challenges by business owners requires a trusted advisor with the right mix of experience, the technical expertise and someone who understands what operating a business is all about.
