Media release | SW welcomes Matthew Hingeley as our new Perth Partner

SW Accountants & Advisors is pleased to announce the appointment of Matthew Hingeley as Partner in the Audit and Advisory Division, based in the firm’s Perth office. Matthew will commence his new role on 1 May 2025.

Matthew brings over two decades of experience from both Big Four and mid-tier accounting firms, with a strong record advising clients across a wide range of industries including Automotive, Energy & resources, Manufacturing, NFP, Consumer products and Agribusiness. He has served as Lead Audit Partner on some of Australia’s largest family-owned groups, ASX listed companies, multinational businesses and not-for-profits. His notable work also includes being the lead audit partner on one of 2024s largest IPO’s, as well as the $1.3 billion IPO of a global provider of water control solutions for plumbing, heating, and industrial systems.

Commenting on the appointment, Mr Duane Rogers, CEO of SW Accountants & Advisors, said: “We are delighted to welcome Matthew to SW. His extensive experience and leadership qualities will undoubtedly strengthen our firm and enhance our ability to deliver exceptional service to our clients. Matthew’s appointment reflects our ongoing commitment to attracting outstanding talent to support our growing practice.”

Originally beginning his career in Perth, Matthew went on to gain further experience in Melbourne before returning to Perth with his family eight years ago. This dual-market experience has given him a deep understanding of the dynamics within both regions, which are instrumental in supporting SW’s national growth strategy.

Known for his ability to build high-performing teams and his collaborative leadership style, Matthew’s approach strongly aligns with SW’s values and people-first culture. His arrival represents another step in the firm’s ongoing investment in its people and its future, as it continues to grow its presence and capability in Western Australia and beyond.

Matthew expressed his enthusiasm about joining SW, stating: “The significant growth opportunity for SW in the Perth market was a major drawcard. I was attracted to a firm that combines a genuine people-focused culture with clear leadership opportunities and a strong strategic vision. SW offers the chance to contribute meaningfully to its future direction while continuing to grow professionally in a dynamic, expanding environment.”

Matthew’s arrival marks another step in SW’s continued investment in its people and its future, as the firm builds on its reputation for delivering trusted advice to clients across Australia.
