Our proud history
In 2015, Carbon opened the doors to its second Western Australian office after partnering with Swan Valley Tax & Accounting.
We expanded our reach in the area further when we partnered with Ellenbrook Tax and Accounting in 2018. By joining forces, we were able to extend our service reach within the area and better serve local businesses and individuals.
Led by award-winning Accounting & Tax Partners Michelle Maynard and Steve Wai, Carbon Swan Valley have a wealth of experience to offer you and your business.
Proudly supporting our Swan Valley Community
Supporting the local Ellenbrook and Swan Valley communities are very important to the team at Carbon. We believe it’s important to go beyond monetary donations and throw ourselves into hands-on activities which is why we love to host our annual Family Fun Day and see all the smiling faces having a blast on the day.
Some of the causes our Ellenbrook Carbonites have supported include Movember, International Women’s Day and the World’s Greatest Shave.
