Marrickville-Based Firm Celebrated for Excellence in Professional Services

We’re still buzzing from what was an incredible night at the 2024 Inner West Local Business Awards — and we’re proud to announce that Latitude Accountants took home not one, but two major awards:

🏆 Outstanding Professional Services
🏆 Business of the Year — the biggest award of the night

These awards are a testament to the trust our clients place in us, the effort our team pours into every engagement, and the values we live by as a modern accounting firm in Marrickville proudly serving the Inner West.

The awards night, held at a packed venue filled with inspiring local business owners, was a true celebration of what makes the Inner West of Sydney such a dynamic and close-knit community.

From the moment we walked in, the energy was electric. Surrounded by amazing operators from suburbs like Leichhardt, Newtown, Ashfield, Dulwich Hill, and Balmain, it was clear we were among the best of the best. The room was filled with stories of resilience, growth, and innovation — and it meant the world to us to be recognised among them.

As the category winners were announced one by one, our team sat nervously awaiting the results. Winning Outstanding Professional Services was a huge moment, but when our name was called again for Business of the Year, the entire table stood up with pride. To be honoured not just for the quality of our work, but for the overall impact of our business — that’s something we’ll never forget.

    What These Awards Really Mean to Us

    For us, these awards are more than trophies. They represent the trust of local families, small businesses, sole traders, and creatives across the Inner West, from Enmore and Stanmore to Haberfield and Rozelle.

    They validate the approach we’ve taken since day one — building real relationships, ditching the accounting jargon, and helping our clients move forward with clarity and confidence.

    This isn’t just recognition for one year of work — it reflects the thousands of phone calls, Zoom sessions, late nights, tax plans, forecasts, and honest chats we’ve had with our clients over the years.

    We’ve worked with:

    • Local cafes and bars in Newtown, Balmain, and Petersham

    • Family businesses in Dulwich Hill, Ashfield, and Summer Hill

    • Freelancers, tradies, and consultants across Tempe, St Peters, and Camperdown

    Every job has mattered. Every win has been shared. And this moment is the result of a genuine, grassroots connection to our community.

    Why We’re Proud to Call Marrickville Home

    Our office sits in the heart of Marrickville, one of Sydney’s most creative, diverse, and fast-growing hubs. It’s the perfect home base for a firm like ours — forward-thinking, a little untraditional, and full of character.

    Being located here gives us a direct connection to all corners of the Inner West. Whether it’s a new client from Leichhardt, a referral from a business in Ashfield, or a walk-in from Dulwich Hill, we’re proud to be part of the Inner West fabric.

    And this win? It’s a win for our entire neighbourhood.

    Looking Ahead — With Gratitude and Big Plans

    This award night reminded us why we do what we do.

    We’re not here to be just another accounting firm. We’re here to change the way people experience accounting, to take stress off our clients’ shoulders, and to build something long-lasting with every person who walks through our doors.

    We’ve got big plans for the rest of the year — expanding our reach, improving the client experience, and continuing to deliver proactive, down-to-earth advice to individuals and businesses across Sydney’s Inner West.

    Thank You, Inner West

    To everyone who supported us, nominated us, or voted — thank you. To our incredible clients, past and present — you made this possible. And to our team — this is your win. Your effort, your commitment to doing things right, and your passion for helping people is what makes Latitude special.

    Winning Business of the Year isn’t the end of the road. It’s fuel for the next chapter — and we’re only getting started.
