I enjoy 'the business of business' in all its forms. Have owned and operated many successful businesses in various fields.
Peter Nathan is an entrepreneur and business enthusiast who has thrived in various fields, embracing the ever-evolving landscape of commerce. Born in New Zealand and now residing on the Gold Coast of Queensland, Australia, the journey has been marked by an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for "the business of business."
The professional journey began with a strong foundation in finance. After qualifying as a Chartered Accountant, embarked on a career with Burroughs Inc., a prominent company in the early days of the computer industry. This pivotal phase provided a deep understanding of financial intricacies and honed communication skills, all at a time when the digital revolution was in its infancy.
An entrepreneurial drive led to establishing my own Chartered Accountancy and Business Consultancy practice, which rapidly grew to serve hundreds of clients across five offices. This venture demonstrated the knack for not only managing finances but also for helping businesses navigate complex challenges successfully.
The entrepreneurial journey took a significant turn when the thriving accountancy practice was sold to a publicly traded company. My acumen was further recognized when I was appointed Chief Financial Officer of this enterprise, playing a crucial role in shaping its financial strategies and operations in Chicago.
Always attuned to market needs, an opportunity was identified in the realm of payroll management. This vision led to the founding "Comacc: The Payroll People." Under leadership, the company developed a cutting-edge Windows-based payroll system, giving it a significant five-year advantage in the market. Comacc achieved remarkable success over the years, establishing itself as a trusted name in payroll solutions.
The entrepreneurial journey reached new heights when making the strategic decision to sell Comacc, and it was acquired by MYOB, a prominent player in the accounting and business software industry.
Throughout my career, I have embodied the essence of adaptability, innovation, and a keen business sense. My story is an example of how a passion for the "business of business" can lead to success in various fields, and how one person's vision can shape industries, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of commerce.
My journey is to continue to inspire future generations of entrepreneurs and business leaders.
