More about our Founder
Michael De Koker
Professional Accountant (SA)
Professional Tax Practitioner
Director
With over two decades of international experience, I bring a unique blend of strategic insight, technical expertise, and practical leadership to every client relationship. After earning my BCom from Stellenbosch University, I began my career in 2000. I spent several years in senior finance roles with leading global companies in the UK—including Paramount Pictures, Expedia, and GroupM. There, I led international reporting teams, spearheaded system implementations, and optimised complex financial processes across borders.
Today, as the founder and Managing Director of Square Peg Consulting Inc. (SPC Inc), I head a cloud-based accounting and advisory firm working with clients across Africa, Europe, and Australia. We specialise in international tax, compliance, and building scalable finance operations for growing businesses, using platforms like Xero and integrated SaaS solutions.
Core strengths include:
- Strategic finance leadership for SMEs, trusts, and cross-border entities
- International and local tax compliance, structuring, and risk mitigation
- Xero ecosystem implementation and workflow automation
- Mentoring and developing high-performing finance teams
I believe financial clarity is a competitive edge, and I’m passionate about helping clients navigate complexity, streamline their operations, and achieve confident, compliant growth.
