Introducing: Douglas Adams, Associate Client Director

Xact Accounting 19 August 2024

We’re excited to introduce Douglas Adams, Associate Client Director in our CFO Advisory Division.

Doug brings a wealth of both technical and life experience to our team, including a career journey that started in the Australian Army. Serving in specialised field of logistics and warehousing, Doug served with distinction, including a deployment to Afghanistan as part of OP SLIPPER.

Douglas’ professional journey continued in the Glass and Aluminium industry, where he gained over 7 years of significant expertise in various manufacturing areas where he built a reputation for being able to parachute into challenging commercial scenarios, quickly determine systemic and operational flaws and provide practical commercial solutions for improving profit outcomes.

Marrying his commercial and military experience, Doug played a critical role in cost modeling and pricing for a complex research project at Boeing Defence Australia, showcasing his analytical skills and attention to detail.

When he’s not helping clients, Doug is dedicated to spending time with his young family – and whenever he can, a bit of fishing and computer programming – hobbies that highlight his diverse interests and commitment to lifelong learning and personal development.
