Congratulations to our newest graduates in the Townsville office - Dani, Lauren and Kevin, on completing their Bachelor of Commerce degrees and stepping confidently into their careers in the accounting profession. It’s a fantastic milestone and a reflection of their hard work and commitment.

We look forward to supporting our graduates as they build their careers and to seeing where their ambition and potential take them.

We’re proud that our Managing Partner, Carl Valentine, delivered the Occasional Address at the recent JCU Graduation ceremony, sharing practical insights for the journey ahead.

He encouraged graduates to seek out opportunities that stretch them, step into responsibility before they feel fully ready, and back their ability to learn and adapt along the way. His message also challenged them to resist the comfort of certainty and instead choose paths that offer growth, challenge and diverse experiences.

A timely reminder that success is built by embracing growth, not avoiding it.

Payday Super is coming, and the shift to payday‑based super payments will be one of the biggest compliance changes employers face in 2026.

From 1 July, super will need to be paid within seven business days of each payday, meaning payroll systems, cash flow and internal processes may need a rethink.

At PVW Partners, we’re helping businesses prepare early so the transition is smooth, compliant and stress‑free.

If you’re unsure how the changes will impact your business or your people, our team is here to guide you through it. Link in comments

This week we had the pleasure of welcoming Ray Thompson as a guest speaker for our Wellness @ PVW Partners Wellbeing program. Hosted by our People and Performance advisors at Melius Solutions, Ray brought a powerful perspective shaped by his journey through elite sport with the North Queensland Cowboys, strong community ties, and his passion for helping people discover purpose and grow personally.

Drawing on lived experience, culture, and honest storytelling, Ray shared the model that underpins The Resilience Project, and his own insights of it in practise. He explored resilience, emotional intelligence, and wellbeing in a way that felt genuine, relatable, and refreshingly practical — leaving our team with plenty to reflect on and tools they can take into both work and life.

A was good reminder that resilience isn’t something we’re born with - it’s something we practise.

What’s one small habit that helps you stay grounded when life gets busy?

This morning our Townsville office had the pleasure of welcoming commerce students from JCU: James Cook University, Australia as part of their organised Firm Crawl through Townsville’s leading accounting firms.

It was a fantastic opportunity for us to give students an inside look at the dynamic world of accounting and business advisory, and what it really takes to thrive in the profession. From career pathways to real client experiences, our team enjoyed sharing insights, stories, and a genuine glimpse into life at PVW.

We loved connecting with the next generation of business leaders and hope the visit sparked a few future careers in the industry!

Over the past week we celebrated the incredible women of PVW Partners and the inclusive culture we continue to build together.

International Women’s Day is a reminder that progress happens when people feel valued, supported and empowered - and when we lift one another up, everyone rises.

Cairns is seeing strong momentum in international visitor numbers, boosting confidence ahead of the peak tourism season as demand rebounds from key Asian and European markets. However, rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East add a layer of uncertainty. Disruptions to European flight routes and higher fuel prices could shift travel patterns and impact visitation if instability persists.

At the same time, the economic picture is mixed. The Reserve Bank has lifted the cash rate to 3.85%, with inflation expected to remain above target until 2028, leaving the possibility of further rate rises this year. Meanwhile, building approvals have dropped to near six-year lows, raising fresh concerns about housing supply in an already tight market.

Despite these pressures, Cairns’ labour market remains a standout, with unemployment falling to 4.5%, the only region in Queensland to improve this month.

Congratulations to Colin Ryan on an incredible 10-year milestone as Partner and Head of Business Advisory

This month, we celebrate Colin’s decade with the firm, a journey that began during the final chapter of PwC and continued through the exciting transition to what we proudly know today as PVW Partners.

A highly experienced Certified Practising Accountant and Chartered Accountant, Colin brings more than 20 years of expertise across both public practice and commercial roles. Beyond the qualifications and experience, it is his commitment to people and progress that truly sets him apart.

Throughout his career, some of Colin’s proudest moments have not just been complex deals or strategic wins. They have been watching colleagues grow into partners, seeing team members expand their families, and mentoring the next generation of leaders within the firm.

For clients, Colin is known for rolling up his sleeves and walking the extra mile. He thrives on partnering with businesses from inception to fruition, navigating complexity, structuring smart solutions, and helping owners maximise value, particularly when they are ready to transition into the next phase of life. Turning challenges into success stories is not just part of the job, it is what drives him.

Here is to 10 years of leadership, loyalty, and lasting impact, and to many more ahead.

Our own Townsville Manager Kayla Dodd had the privilege visiting William Ross State High School this week as a part of their Alumni marketing campaign they are doing.

She had the amazing opportunity to connect with her own business teacher Natalie Fergusson when she was a student there and to give back by having a Q&A session with their year 12 accounting class. It was a great experience, and the students had great questions and were very curious to learn more about the accounting industry.

Her take away was that it was a really rewarding experience and her cup is certainly full after it.

For any high school students considering a career in accounting, this could be the start of your own full circle story. We’re hosting an Accounting Information Night at our Townsville office on 29th April, where you can learn more about career pathways, study options, and what life in the industry is really like.
