PHA

Chartered Accountants & business Advisors

Based in Adelaide South Australia, we provide strategic and practical accounting advice to businesses and their owners. Whilst we work with a diverse range of business, we have become recognised specialists to the rural sector.

Formerly Peter Hayes & Associates, PHA’s journey began in 1987 as a ‘one-man band’ and a vision to build a practice that specifically caters to the needs of small business. Today, many of our client relationships span 30 plus years and across multiple generations of the same family.

These humble beginnings still influence us today. We know attention to detail, working closely alongside our clients, a hands-on approach and recognising that in every business, there will be good times and bad, is pivotal to our success.

Founded in 1987, PHA is a chartered accounting firm with a long established reputation for its quality advice.

“Having known Peter professionally for 15 years, I have found Peter to be a leader in providing accounting services to the rural sector. Having family involved in farming operations, he understands the challenges his clients face in modern farming and therefore has a strong affiliation with the rural sector.

He works closely with his clients and their advisors in their tax planning business structures and succession planning and has an excellent record on delivering on the agreed strategies in a timely manner. The strategies developed are focused on a structure that is sustainable for the long-term success of the family business for future generations.”


James Robinson, Rural Bank – Head of Sales WA, SA, NT & Western Victoria

“Our business and personal accounting needs are quite complex, and we have always appreciated Peter and his team’s advice, expertise and professionalism.

We have no hesitation in recommending his services to others.”


Roger Welch, Unified Solutions Group – Managing Director

“I have now worked with the team at Peter Hayes’ office for over 10 years. This has involved working with many of the Hayes’ clients in relation to management of their commercial structures as well as in relation to their taxation affairs and succession planning.

Over this period of association I have seen the Peter Hayes’ people consistently work in a dedicated and proactive manner to represent their clients and always with a view to ‘value adding’. In my experience the focus of the Hayes’ office on proactive client management, as distinct from merely preparing financial and taxation returns, is quite unique and a point of differentiation from other accounting service providers.”


Stephen Heath, Wallmans Lawyers – Partner

“We felt quite honoured when Peter Hayes asked us to write a testimonial for his business.

Having used the services and knowledge of Peter and his staff for approximately 20 years has given us a very good insight into how dedicated Peter is to his clients and to providing only top quality assistance and support which is always up to date and executed on time every time.

We have purchased land and equipment and structured our business with Peter’s advice.

He keeps up to date regarding taxation and legislation that can affect our business so that he can provide the best possible help and guidance that influence the way we control our finances and business structure.

The changes he has suggested have proven of great benefit to the business both financially and emotionally. His vision into the future has guided us with our succession planning and safeguarded us in the years ahead, which is very important and reassuring.

PHA Accountant & Advisors is an accounting firm we would highly recommend.”
