Lynette Young Accounting Services

Lynette Young is the founder and owner of the business and looks after all client’s needs personally.  After successfully graduating with a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Queensland in 1992, initial employment positions held were with small businesses in the commercial industry which gave Lynette a sound working knowledge of how a business operates from the ground up. A move to Public Practice in 1995 saw Lynette gain further experience with Accounting and Tax with all different types and sizes of clients.  The year 2000 brought a change to the Australian Tax System with the introduction of GST and it was at this time Lynette decided to move back into the commercial industry.  This time working for larger commercial companies gave her new knowledge and experience from a different angle.  2001 saw the current practice commence in a very small scale.  A move to the Sunshine Coast in 2004 saw the business continually grow each year to now, all the while Lynette continues to work full time and successfully service her clients after hours.  Lynette is also happily married and has a two year old mischievous son.
