Every model we build together addresses genuine business challenges faced by Australian companies in 2025.

Senior Financial Analyst
Learning from Experience
The program completely changed how I approach financial analysis. Instead of just plugging numbers into templates, I now understand the business logic behind every assumption and can adapt models to unique situations.
Indira joined our program while working in corporate finance for a Brisbane-based logistics company. She needed better tools for evaluating expansion opportunities across different market conditions. After completing our intensive modeling curriculum, she transitioned to a senior analyst role where she regularly presents investment recommendations to executive leadership.
Her current work involves building complex scenario models for supply chain investments, incorporating factors like fuel costs, labor availability, and regulatory changes that affect transport operations throughout Queensland and New South Wales.
