Matt Neibling Acis

What do you do when a career in dentistry just isn’t floating your boat? You harness your inner entrepreneur and co-found Acis.

Matt takes the business of business structures very seriously. As a CEO, he understands risk and understands why getting it right every time isn’t a luxury – it’s a given.

His main day-to-day role is stress-relief:
“I reduce risk for professional advisers and save them both time and worry by ensuring they get the results their clients need, when they’re needed.”

Matt has led the Acis team since 1988 and, when he’s not building it as the Alpha dog of the industry, you can find him with his family – he may even be playing guitar badly on one of the Sunshine Coast’s gorgeous beaches.

Emily Pritchard Acis

When Emily says she thrives on leading a team who deliver exceptional products, expertise and customer service, with the perfect blend of tech and humans, she’s not exaggerating.  As our Chief Legal & Operating Officer, she seamlessly integrates all teams and business units to bring strategic initiatives to life. With her collaborative approach and personable communication style, Emily ensures alignment and common goals among every member of Acis.

Emily is known for her exceptional legal acumen, attention to detail and in-depth product knowledge. Her expertise and pride in maintaining positive, trusted relationships has earned her high respect within her field and among the entire team at Acis.

Juggling her professional commitments and raising three children, finding time to relax is a rare treat for Emily. When she does, she heads to her favourite local beach for the day to soak up the sunshine and fresh air.

Mick Neilson

Mick first joined Acis at the age of 18 and, apart from a few stints away travelling, he’s been an integral part of our team ever since.

With a decade spent in the Legal Services team, Mick has amassed an in-depth knowledge of Acis products and legal documents. This practical experience and technical understanding prove invaluable in his current position. He’s able to respond directly to new and existing client enquiries with efficiency and accuracy, providing an exceptional level of technical assistance.

Mick’s friendly, down-to-earth manner sees him build strong and positive relationships with Acis clients and industry contacts. He truly enjoys getting to know his clients and their firms, and his hands-on and personal approach instils confidence and trust.

Outside of work, when he’s not wrangling his young family, you’ll find Mick fishing, surfing or playing what he terms ‘Old Man Cricket’ with a team of mates.

Peter Johnson Acis

Widely acknowledged as a leader in his field, Peter has focussed on the superannuation sector for most of his 30-year career.

Peter’s role is to provide high level SMSF services to Acis clients, with a focus on reducing the risk of non-compliance in the establishment and operation of SMSFs.

A good day for him is when he and the team are able to show a client how to achieve something they thought may not be possible.

It surprised us to learn that Peter has a sideline interest as a qualified snake catcher. He says it’s a hobby he’s always loved, and he holds a unique status as the only non-veterinary contributor to the NSW National Parks and Wildlife’s report on the hygiene protocols for the care of captive snakes. By comparison, corralling any SMSF enquiries should be a walk in the park.

Daniel Beach Acis

To say that Daniel lives and breathes technology is an understatement. He has a wealth of experience in the software development industry and has key strengths in business technology planning and software project management.

As Chief Technology Officer, Daniel manages the overarching technology strategy for Acis and the continual development of software to deliver optimal solutions for our clients. Never hampered by existing software limitations, Daniel sees his role as translating specific business needs into advantageous technological outcomes.

Daniel’s interests outside of tech include going to musicals and watching ice hockey. He secretly hopes that one day someone will release a musical about ice hockey. Keep hoping, Daniel!

James Creevy Acis

The fact that James can solve a Rubik’s Cube in under 11 seconds (with his eyes closed!) says a lot about his fastidious nature.

At Acis, James is focussed on making sure trusts and superannuation funds are aligned with current legislation, as well as ensuring they’re operating to deliver the greatest benefit to his clients. Formerly with CST Documents, James has been a part of the Acis crew since early 2018.

Out of office hours, James’ scrupulous personality is equally in force. If he’s not doing strenuous exercise he’s working on disproving Wile’s proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem (yeah, we don’t know what that is either!).

Clients often comment that Acis seems like a family, and this is no truer than in the case of Belinda.

Belinda has been with Acis since the mid-90s and now regards many of her clients as friends, always finding time for a catch up when they call in with queries.

She has worked across most of the Acis business, and with client satisfaction being paramount for Belinda, she now sits in the Legal and Client Services Team.

Rumour has it that she is also pretty serious about cuisine, and finds time to mix her loves of travel, wine and food with friends and family as often as possible. Do we get an invite, Belinda?

What happens when you love being an Acis client? You come and work with us, of course! That’s exactly what happened with Courtney. In her role as an Assistant Accountant for one of our wonderful clients, she liaised with our team regularly. Impressed by the positive interactions and efficient service, when she heard of an opportunity to join Acis, she jumped at it. And we’re very glad she did!

Now part of our Client Services Team, Courtney works closely with clients, responding to phone calls and emails and processing orders. She’s a stickler for double-checking every detail to ensure that orders are accurate and nothing is missed.

Nicole, Client Services Officer at Acis, is more than just a registration specialist. She’s the maestro of client satisfaction. Nicole takes care of all the details, checking for any potential issues in orders and managing the process with lightning speed and pinpoint accuracy.

Acis clients love working with Nicole for her approachable nature and ability to find humour in even the most complex situations. She’s dedicated to leaving clients not only with a completed registration, but also with a positive and memorable experience.

When Nicole isn’t at work, she enjoys relaxing with a margarita and watching her kids play. And if you’re lucky, she might even show you her signature “running man” dance move. Oh, and did we mention her love for all things Elvis? Let’s just say she has a soft spot for the King.

Darascilla brings a wealth of experience to her position at Acis. Following a stint in the banking industry, she worked for a number of years at accounting firms where she developed her interest in company set-ups and structuring. 

All this multi-faceted experience combines to make Darascilla a valued member of our Acis team where she expertly reviews Acis documents to deliver a first-class customer service experience.

When she as some downtime, she’ll either be engrossed in a real crime documentary or indulging her other passion for interior design.

Previously with CST Documents, Danni joined the Acis client services team in 2018 when the businesses merged. She brings diverse and valuable experience, having previously worked with Corporate Affairs Victoria and ASIC.

Travelling around Australia for her husband’s job certainly has its perks, but now that Kath has found a home in the Acis Client Services crew, she doesn’t want to leave!

Kath spends her days efficiently processing client orders, registering companies and setting up trusts and funds. She commits herself wholeheartedly to delivering the top customer service for which Acis is known. On a weekend, if you can’t find Kath relaxing at home with hubby, family and friends and taking her dogs for walks on the beach.

Meet Tom, Acis’ wizard financial assistant. Tom is responsible for making sure cash flows in and out smoothly, and if there’s any hiccup, he’s the go-to-guy for refunds.

 

While numbers are his bread and butter, Tom has a unique talent of playing the recorder with a blindfold on, which is not something we would recommend you try at home.

 

Outside of work, Tom stays active by playing basketball with friends, and flexing his green thumb by growing his own mushrooms. We can only hope he’ll turn his shroom hobby into a side hustle and start delivering fresh mushrooms to the office.

Werner Combrinck Acis

Working out new ways for clients to unlock revenues is literally what gets Werner out of bed each day! Having previously held roles at Xero and top-tier accounting firms, Werner brings a broad range of skills and experience to his Account Director role at Acis.

Werner’s focus is guiding clients through the processes surrounding structures and restructures, to help them secure the outcomes they’re looking for. A natural problem solver, Werner’s not afraid to ask questions and dig deeper to uncover how he can continually add value to Acis clients.  

When time allows between work and spending time with his two sons, Werner heads straight for the golf course to sharpen his swing. He’s not disclosing his handicap, but rumour has it that the pro golf tour has come courting.

Dale Wright Acis

Dale has more than three decades’ experience in the financial services industry including roles at a number of ASX-listed companies. At Acis, he’s constantly on the hunt to identify how we can help our clients build more efficient practices.

Dale’s personable nature enables him to form strong and positive relationships with clients, who value his professionalism and integrity. He was attracted to Acis mostly because people are always at the heart of the business.

Although he’s a diehard Richmond supporter, Dale’s biggest passion outside of work is horse racing – he actually owns a few promising Group One contenders. We’re sure he’ll shout the team drinks for any winners in the stable. Right, Dale?

Helgard de Lange Acis

A lifetime in the accounting industry seemed to have led naturally to Acis when Helgard joined the team as our Customer Success Manager. Helgard’s wealth of experience has seen him in roles across private practice, corporate accounting and e-commerce. He now focusses all that expertise on supporting Acis clients in building the value of their businesses and, in turn, the value of their client relationships.

Using his knowledge of the professional wealth management industry, Helgard is forging strong ties with Acis clients and ensuring they are making the most of our market-leading technology. His skills as an ambidextrous golfer will surely come in handy as he juggles Acis’ diverse client base.

With two young kids at home, Helgard keeps himself busy but he tells us he can “really” run 100 metres in 11 seconds *cough Mick*, so he has the energy to keep going.
