Rachael Lester

Business Manager

Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting and Marketing), Certified Xero Advisor, MYOB Professional Partner, Institute of Certified Bookkeepers Member, Xero Migration Certified

I have been working for The BAS Agency in some capacity since 2011, initially providing bookkeeping support and then moving to the position of Business Manager. I enjoy the variety of my role which exposes me to both working directly with our current clients, meeting with potential clients and assisting the other members of our team. As no business is exactly the same, every day is different and contains new challenges and new successes. I particularly like assisting clients with managing their business cash flow and looking at ways they can improve their bottom line. I have over 15 years’ experience working in finance, spanning from the mining industry to small business. I am proficient in a number of accounting packages including MYOB, Xero and Reckon (Quickbooks) and also have some knowledge in SAP, Payforce National and Ostendo.
