About Our Business
Tina Kirwan is a Chartered Accountant and the founder of Running the Numbers.
Determined to create something different, the name “Running the Numbers” incorporates both Tina’s love for running and for numbers showing that behind every business (including accounting ones!) are real people with passions, goals and dreams.
It’s the people behind the businesses that we enjoy getting to know and working with.
For us, it is important to understand your goals and dreams so that we know what drives you and we can help you achieve these goals. It is equally important for you to have an accountant that you get along with so that you are comfortable calling them for advice, not matter how big or small.
At Running the Numbers we are here to take away the stress and worry that typically accompanies accounting, bookkeeping and tax concerns. We explain things in a way that you can understand – without all the jargon and acronyms!
Our Purpose and Values
Running the Numbers’ values are based on quality, reliable, timely advice resulting in a personal, client-focused experience. Our business is based around helping you achieve your business goals. It is important to us that our clients can access and speak with their accountant when they need to. We will always do our very best to return your call or email within 24 hours, if not the very same day.

15 August 2019 - My mum recently moved to the area and this morning I accompanied her during her appointment with Tina, her new accountant! Tina was so thorough, helpful, patient and I really felt mum wasn’t rushed but rather given quality time and treated with empathy. Thanks Tina, so glad we chose you to keep her numbers in check!!!

Running the Numbers have been an absolute delight to work with. Tina and her associate Leonie, helped me setup and register my first company. It was such an efficient process and they made it so damn easy for a dummy like me. They are incredibly helpful and they have answered all of my questions, but in a way that I can actually understand and have learnt from. I am so glad to have RTN batting for me, it really helps me to rest easy knowing that I have a team of experts onside. Honestly, I couldn't recommend Running the Numbers any more, I don't for a second believe that 5 stars is a high enough rating. Thank you Tina, and thank you Leonie. I am incredibly happy with your accounting services and I just feel blessed to have you on my team.

3 February 2022Tina is AMAZING. First year working as a sole trader (I know nothing about this stuff) and I had encountered many accountants that made me feel overwhelmed and over complicated everything. Tina got straight to the point and got my tax return done so quickly. I am so thankful to have booked in with her and would recommend to everyone in the area!

2 October 2023Tina was very professional and thorough when working with me. The process was super easy and convenient doing it via email and online - living almost an hour away it was great that Tina could work with me this way. She was thorough when asking questions which definitely showed that Tina wanted to get the best outcome for me. She also provided me with useful advice being a beginner sole trader and is so supportive! Definitely recommend Running the numbers!! Thanks Tina!

9 July 2024We were on a tight deadline to get a Pty Ltd and Trust set up. Tina from Running the Numbers was amazing. She got everything set up in time, was easy to work with and communicated every step of the way. If you are looking for a reliable, hard-working accountant that gets results, then I would highly recommend her.

We moved into the area in 2017 and have trekked to the City to get out tax done every year. We recently were recommended to see Tina and were able to see her tonight after work and couldn't be happier. Tina was excellent, was very thorough and helpful in providing us with advice with her understanding of our affairs. Thanks Tina. So glad Janet and I discovered you and your Company.
