Elizabeth McLardy
I'm a Certified Practicing Accountant (CPA) with a passion for numbers and a dedication to fostering excellence in the world of finance. With over 13 years of invaluable experience in the accounting and finance field, I have proudly contributed to the success of top ASX 100 companies both in Australia and overseas.
As an accomplished and talented trainer, I have had the privilege of sharing my extensive knowledge and expertise with the next generation of financial professionals for the past decade. My role as a subject matter expert in the CPA program has allowed me to shape the careers of countless aspiring accountants, guiding them towards excellence in their chosen field. In 2024, I was recognised by the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers at their annual LUCA Awards, winning the Educator of the Year award for my work at Monarch Institute.
Beyond the classroom, I have taken on leadership roles that reflect my commitment to financial integrity and service to the community. My experience as a board member and treasurer for not-for-profit organizations has allowed me to apply my financial acumen to make a positive impact on those in need.
When I'm not immersed in the world of numbers and financial education, you'll find me nurturing my other great passion: gardening. Whether I'm tending to my plants or exploring the great outdoors on a bushwalk, I find solace and inspiration in the beauty of the natural world.
Family is at the heart of everything I do, and I cherish the moments spent with my loved ones. It is this balance between professional excellence and personal fulfillment that fuels my passion for life.
