Ascent Accountants

Today we're celebrating 28 years since Nigel founded Ascent – 28 years of helping clients, building an amazing team, and growing the business into what it is today. 💙

From day one, Nigel's passion, leadership, and commitment have been the driving force behind Ascent. We're incredibly grateful for everything he does for our team and our clients.

We're all hard at work tackling EOFY today, but we'll be making up for it on Friday with a few well-earned drinks at the pub to celebrate! 🍻

Congratulations on 28 amazing years, Nigel – and happy 28th birthday to Ascent! 🥳

🚨 PAYDAY SUPER IS NEARLY HERE! 🚨

From 1st July 2026, employers will need to pay super at the same time as wages, not quarterly.

What this means for businesses:
✔️ Super will need to be processed every pay run
✔️ Payroll systems may need updating
✔️ Cashflow planning will become even more important
✔️ Employers should start preparing ASAP to avoid last-minute stress

While the changes are designed to help employees receive their super sooner, they’ll also mean a big shift in payroll processes for many businesses.
