Meet Your Bookkeeper
Karen Bignell – Owner of CBD Bookkeepers
Senior Bookkeeper | Registered BAS Agent | Xero & MYOB Specialist
As a qualified Senior Bookkeeper and Registered BAS Agent, I am passionate about helping business owners gain confidence in their finances and meet their compliance obligations with ease.
With extensive experience managing bookkeeping, payroll services, and HR compliance, I understand the importance of accuracy, attention to detail, and reliable financial information. My role is to ensure your books are up to date, your obligations are met, and your business has the support it needs to operate smoothly.
Building long-term relationships with my clients is at the heart of what I do. Great bookkeeping is about more than numbers, it’s also about trust, communication, and giving business owners the confidence to make informed decisions.
When you partner with CBD Bookkeepers, you can expect professional expertise, personalised service, and a commitment to helping your business succeed.
