GBST appoints client relationship manager
GBST has appointed former National Australia Bank and Australian Super technical specialist, Elly Grace, as its new client relationship manager and tax subject matter expert.
Grace is a chartered accountant and has had significant experience as a tax technical SME and has held previous roles in tax advisory with KPMG.
GBST’s head of Asia Pacific, Denis Orrock, said Grace would bring considerable skills to the organisation.
“Elly was a huge advocate of GBST’s Tax Analyser capabilities while at NAB, and worked closely with GBST business solutions executive, Kathy Taylor-Hoffman, showcasing it to clients,” he said.
Grace said she was excited by the scope of innovation in the tax space and intended to work with clients to design solutions that would truly make a difference, and work with development teams to create them.
