Different strengths.
Shared values.
Cherry Black is led by partners Paul Jones, Brad Whelan and Nick Ellingsen, bringing
together decades of experience across taxation, business advisory and commercial finance.
While each partner brings different expertise, they share the same philosophy - listen
first, understand the bigger picture and provide practical advice that helps clients
make informed decisions.
We think beyond today.
Good accountants explain what happened.
Great advisers help you decide what happens next.
That's why our conversations rarely stop at compliance.
Whether you're planning for growth, reviewing your business structure,
improving cash flow or preparing for retirement, we focus on helping you make decisions that create long-term value.
Because accounting isn't simply about reporting numbers.
It's about helping you use them.
