Terry Carter - Consultant


In 1992 after a number of years working both overseas and in New Zealand in senior accounting and management roles Terry Carter left the commercial field to establish the public accountancy practice of Terry J Carter & Associates Ltd.

Prior to establishing the accounting practice, Terry was the Group Managing Director of a large and diversified Automotive and Marine importing organisation. During this period he gained considerable experience in mergers and acquisitions, group restructuring, business planning and commercial operations and management.

This background has given Terry the ability to share his commercial experience with our many clients and has been of assistance to them in adding value to their business.

Along with Terry's consulting role within the practice, Terry also acts as a Director on a number of Company Boards.
