Gerard Wilkes established the firm in 1977 after more than a decade in the accounting profession. A Chartered Accountant since 1972 and admitted as a Fellow in 1981, Gerard has built a legacy of trust, professionalism, and results that continues to guide our practice today.
With extensive knowledge across business, investment, superannuation, and taxation, Gerard has always combined technical expertise with a practical, down-to-earth approach. His particular passion has been helping clients create long-term wealth through superannuation and direct share investments.
While Gerard’s legacy continues to shape the firm, today Wilkes is also led by the next generation of family and professional partners. Our focus is on combining trusted experience with fresh insight, ensuring our clients benefit from both continuity and innovation.
