What sets Keith apart is the convergence of three critical competencies:

Decades of CFO/Head of Tax/CEO leadership across ASX-listed, unlisted private and high-opportunity Founder led enterprises—where deal mode was ever-present and scrutiny from investor markets, shareholders, lenders, and regulators was the norm;

Dual credibility as a tax lawyer and chartered accountant, bringing evidence-led risk, compliance, and governance to every decision, every deal, every contractual or transactional relationship and every reportable result.

Founder-operator track record—he has funded and helped other founders get to market and run his own start-ups in innovative spaces where law and finance were essential tools for robust foundations, but he also honed business development, sales, customer experience and marketing skills. Across his 40-year career, Keith has performed so many roles in the start-up space that broadened his outlook and experience, and weathered downturns and recessions, shaping a pragmatic, no-spin approach to resilience and execution.

Keith bridges boardroom direction with operational execution trench work in all sizes of business. Apart from his clear, deep and highly respected ASX experience, he has road-showed new products, led investor and shareholder relations, and served as a board director in multiple start-ups, where liquidity and cost control were existential. This forged deep CFO capabilities in cost management, cash-flow monitoring, ratio analysis, scenario planning, financial forecasting, and resource allocation—translated into decision rules, cadences, and accountability leaders can deploy in their next reporting cycle. As co-founder of A&K with Anshu, Keith pairs financial clarity with leadership capability so organisations don’t just set strategy—they ship it in a repeatable, executable framework.
