Acctivate

Your New Accounting Team

Accountants who want the best for your business. Through our proactive, relationship based approach, you will be able to make the best decisions possible with a trusted advisor on your team.

Our why for establishing Acctivate is that too many businesses under utilise their accountant. Accountants have so much valuable knowledge beyond the scope of tax, which is why taking a relationship based approach with our clients leads to more conversations, a better understanding of their business and tailored solutions.

Elle Green

Director
Welcome to Acctivate! I’m Elle (pronounced Ell), a Chartered Accountant with over a decade of professional experience. I bring a robust background in small business taxation, cashflow management and a knack for explaining complex financial terms in an easy-to-understand way.
 
Beyond my career my most important roles are a devoted mum and wife and I firmly believe you start a business to be able to enjoy more time with your family.
Originally from the small town of Bellingen in NSW, I developed an appreciation for community and small business which I still share today. When I’m not immersed in helping clients, you’ll find me spending time with family, going to the beach or practicing reformer Pilates to stay active. I’m also a huge staffy lover and cheer loudly for the Sydney Roosters NRL team.
 
I look forward to connecting with you and exploring how we can achieve your small business goals.

Simon Burke

Director
I’m Simon, a Chartered Accountant with nearly a decade of experience.
With a deep background in accounting and business, I’m eager to help your business achieve its full potential. Whether it’s managing cash flow, streamlining processes, or optimising for tax efficiency, my main goal is to set you up for success.
 

My approach to your business is to fully embody Acctivate’s values of Proactive, Curious, Determined and Authentic.

My passion for accounting is driven by my curiosity and lifelong immersion in the business world. This has given me a thorough understanding of what makes a business thrive. Outside of Acctivate, you’ll often find me on the golf course, immersed in a good book or cheering for the mighty Collingwood Magpies.

Tyrone Shandiman

Director (Non-Practicing)

Hello! I’m Tyrone Shandiman, one of the Directors at Acctivate. Although I’m not involved in direct customer interactions, I contribute to the team by offering business advisory and strategic guidance.

My professional journey has been primarily within the insurance industry, with a focus on strata insurance. In 2011, I founded Strata Insurance Solutions, where I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of clients with specialised insurance solutions for residential and commercial properties.  In addition to my roles at Strata Insurance Solutions and Acctivate, I’m a Non-Practicing Director at a personal injury law firm and two other insurance broking businesses, offering my insights and experience to guide the firm’s direction.

Outside of my professional endeavours, I’m a foodie with a passion for cooking and entertaining. I’m also an avid traveller who loves exploring new places and experiencing life beyond the workplace. This passion for travel reflects my approach to life—balancing work with personal interests and staying curious about the world around me.

Simon always has explained accounting/tax to be in nice simple english. I always understand the best way to move forward and would recommend Acctivate to absolutely anyone who wants an accountant who cares.

I would highly recommend Elle and the team at Acctivate. Elle has been my accountant for many years now and has assisted me with both my small business and property portfolio/ capital gains queries. Her experience and expertise is reflected in her clear and proactive communication and consistently exceptional results.
