David O'Brien

I help business owners align their financial outcomes with their strategic objectives, supporting business continuity, sustainable growth and long-term value creation. By combining accounting, advisory and board-level experience, I work alongside clients to make practical decisions that strengthen performance and prepare them for what comes next.

Working with business owners, I provide strategic business and financial advice across every stage of the business lifecycle, supporting businesses who want a trusted adviser to help translate their goals into clear, actionable plans. I have worked with clients navigating significant business decisions, whether establishing a new venture, expanding operations, restructuring for future growth or preparing for succession.

I believe in working closely with clients over time, regularly reviewing their plans, challenging assumptions and helping them stay focused on their long-term objectives. Open communication, accessibility and practical advice are central to how I work.

In addition to client advisory work, I bring extensive governance and leadership experience. I am currently Chair of the Moore Australia (QLD/NNSW) firm board of partners and have previously held equivalent governance roles including, President of Queensland Cricketers’ Club, and Chairman at Business South Bank. I also serve on the Finance Committee and a Director of Tattersall’s Club Brisbane,
