About Hervey Bay Tax Solutions
Cassie’s experience has taught her that people don’t always realise the potential value that a registered tax agent can deliver, so we work with our clients to ensure they know exactly what areas we can help them in and that they know they can ask questions at any time.

Lisa Webster
Accountant
What’s your working background? How did you end up in your current position?
Started in the industry while still living in New Zealand and continued when we moved to Australia. While working in Wellington, NZ I was known as an Accounting Technician and an Auditors Assistant. I completed my bachelor’s degree in 2008 while living in Brisbane. I’ve had some small breaks from the Accounting Profession (I have four children) and chose to trial other professions: Aged Care and Allied health (Therapy Assistant for Speech and Occupational Therapy) which also included NDIS Plan Management. I started with Hervey Bay Tax Solutions in June 2023.
What’s your ideal travel destination?
We traveled a few years ago to a destination that was on our bucket list…. Mount Everest Base Camp – in the middle of their winter. That was an incredible trip and one we hope to do again (but most definitely a different season). The other destination I would love to visit is Las Vegas. My husband was able to go for our friends 40th a few years back and has promised we will go someday.

Kim Harvey
Administration Assistant - Hervey Bay Plan Management
What’s your working background? How did you end up in your current position?
Having a child with complex care needs myself, who is also on the NDIS and with previous experience working in the disability sector, Cassie thought I would be a good fit for Hervey Bay Plan Management. I have over 20 years personal experience dealing with everything disability related, so I have a great understanding of how the industry works. Whilst I had many years away from the work force due to family commitments, during this time I worked from home doing the bookkeeping for my husband’s company.
What’s your ideal travel destination?
Too many places to mention but if I had to choose one, I’d like to see the Northern Lights in Scandinavia,
Do you have any pets?
We no longer have any pets, our border collie past a few years ago.
If you could work any job in the world, what would it be?
I think I would make a great Professional Wine Taster!

What’s your working background? How did you end up in your current position?
This is my first job ever but there was no other choice, there’s no one better to greet clients as they walk in the door.
What’s your ideal travel destination?
I love long walks to the fridge and car rides into the office.
Do you have any pets?
Yes please I would love some pets if you’re offering.
If you could work any job in the world, what would it be?
Treat tester or professional cuddler for sure!
