Why Melbourne businesses stick with us
A Registered BAS Agent, not just a bookkeeper
Registration No. 90529000 with the Tax Practitioners Board means legal authority to lodge, professional oversight, insurance - and later agent-only BAS deadlines for you.
Audit-hardened
We’ve supported clients through ATO, Fair Work, GST and payroll tax audits, and some of our clients are independently audited every year for their financial services licence. We set your records up as if one is coming - so if it ever does, it’s boring.
Australian-based. Always.
No offshore outsourcing, ever. Your books are handled by the Australian team you actually talk to - never handed to a call centre overseas.
Commercial advice, not data entry
25+ years of small business patterns behind every recommendation. Clients call it “practical, commercial business sense” - we call it the job.
When the ATO calls, you want us in the room.
Most bookkeeping websites don’t mention audits. We’ve been through them - ATO reviews, Fair Work claims, GST and payroll tax audits - sitting beside our clients with records that held up. Governance focus, QMS-aligned systems and a Registered BAS Agent’s standing to deal with the regulator directly.
- ATO reviews & GST audits
- Fair Work & award compliance
- Payroll tax exposure checks
- Annual audits for financial services licensees
- Voluntary disclosures & remediation
- Record-keeping & governance systems
Fluent in your software
Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks - we set them up, fix them, run them and teach them. We work across virtually any accounting software too, including custom systems. If your file is the problem, we rescue that too.

What’s the difference between a bookkeeper and a BAS agent?
Anyone can do data entry. Only a Registered BAS Agent can legally prepare and lodge your BAS for a fee, advise on GST and PAYG, and represent you to the ATO. NJM&Co is registered (No. 90529000) - so your books and your lodgements come from the same accountable person.
How much do your bookkeeping services cost?
We charge by the hour, billed in five-minute increments. You’re not paying for keystrokes, though: you’re paying for a Registered BAS Agent who works fast and spots problems before they cost you. After a free chat and a look at your file, we give you a realistic estimate.
My books are badly behind. Can you fix them?
Yes - catch-up and rescue work is our bread and butter. We triage what the ATO needs first, bring lodgements up to date, then set up a rhythm so it never happens again.
Do you work onsite or remotely?
Both. Most Melbourne clients run on a remote monthly rhythm with scheduled check-ins; onsite help is available where hands-on suits better.
