Who we support

Built for not-for-profits, with support for SMEs too

We primarily work with not-for-profit organisations, alongside a range of small-to-medium businesses. The common thread is usually the same: finance work needs to be clearer, more reliable, and easier to manage than it is today.

Not-for-profits

We understand the realities of not-for-profit finance work — limited internal capacity, governance responsibility, funding expectations, and the need for board-ready reporting that stands up to scrutiny.

Small-to-medium businesses

We also support SMEs that need dependable compliance, steadier monthly finance support, and reporting that helps owners and managers make clearer decisions.

We support organisations Australia-wide, with a primary location reference in Sutherland, New South Wales.

How we work

A structured approach that reduces noise and builds confidence

We keep finance work structured and calm, so you get control without extra complexity. That usually means building the right foundation first, then creating a steady monthly rhythm, then using the numbers to support better decisions.

01

Build a clear compliance foundation

We help you stay on top of reporting requirements and obligations, with clean records, better visibility, and a clearer sense of what needs to happen when.

02

Create a steady monthly finance rhythm

We bring order to bookkeeping, payroll, month-end close, and management reporting, so the numbers are ready when you need them.

03

Turn numbers into direction

We translate financial information into plain-English insight, so leaders and boards can make decisions with more confidence.

What we stand for

The standards behind the way we work

Our work is guided by a few clear principles. These are not slogans. They shape how we communicate, how we deliver, and how we support the organisations we work with.

Clarity first

We make complex financial work simpler, more readable, and easier to act on.

Reliability in every detail

We focus on accurate work, delivered consistently and with care.

Integrity and accountability

We apply professional judgement properly and avoid shortcuts.

Partnership

We work alongside your team with steady, practical support.

Proactive intelligence

We look for ways to improve reporting, systems, and decision-making over time.

We came to Matthew and the Hopscotch team with a few tricky compliance issues, and they were great to deal with from the start. Clear advice, steady support, and no unnecessary fuss. They made a stressful situation feel much more manageable.
