A partnership that is more than just numbers

Thank you to Radford parent and Tailored Accounts founder, Mr Harry Hoang OAM, for hosting our students for a valuable work experience opportunity.

During their visit, students gained real-world insights into the accounting industry, engaged in meaningful discussions, and heard Harry’s inspiring story – from humble beginnings to founding a successful firm and receiving the Medal of the Order of Australia for his service to the community.

Our partnership with Tailored Accounts opens the door to internships, mentorships, and workshops – helping bridge the gap between school and future careers.

Harry will also be the keynote speaker at our upcoming Radford Collegians Networking & Career Expo on Monday, 23 June.

Year 12 students Anvi Gupta and Lachlan Lloyd, attended the visit and shared the following insights of their experience:

“Being able to talk about the future of accounting – especially with AI on the rise and fewer high school students considering it –opened my eyes to how complex and interesting the field is. Mr Harry Hoang OAM, the CEO of Tailored Accounts, made it clear that accounting goes way beyond what it seems on the surface. He explained how using AI to take care of the repetitive tasks can make the job much more engaging, letting people focus on the more human and strategic side of things. Listening to Harry’s story was incredibly inspiring, and his advice to always look beyond the finish line has stuck with me. It’s helped shift my mindset from just trying to get through the end of Year 12 to thinking more about the bigger picture and the kind of life I want to create. Huge thanks to everyone at Tailored Accounts who took the time to chat with us—it was a really valuable and eye-opening experience”. – Anvi Gupta.

“Recently, I had the opportunity to visit Tailored Accountants as a result of the Collegian partnership with Mr Harry Huang OAM of Tailored Accounts. Harry generously hosted a tour of his firm. It was such a valuable experience that gave us all a genuine look into the world of accounting and business ownership. One highlight for me was speaking with a staff member who had studied software engineering, a field I am personally interested in. She provided some incredible insight into how a degree like software engineering integrates into accounting as well as showing me some of the projects she was personally working on. Mr Huang also shared with us his journey of starting a business, offering advice and personal anecdotes that I found not only helpful, but inspiring. It was a fantastic experience that helped me better gauge my possible future pathways by providing me with a genuine experience of business ownership and accounting” – Lachlan Lloyd.
