In the final episode of our Behind the Books series, we sit down with Stacey, the newest member of the EJS Business Services team.
Stacey joined us earlier this year, bringing with her over two decades of accounting experience - including as a chartered accountant. In this conversation, she shares her career journey, what’s kept her passionate about accounting for 20 years, and why she chose to step into a new chapter with us.
We also explore Stacey’s perspective on what sets successful businesses apart, the common mistakes she sees across clients, and the difference it makes when you have both a strong bookkeeper and an accountant on your side. Plus, Stacey gives us a glimpse into her life beyond the numbers, sharing the joys and lessons from her transition into this new role.
If you’ve been enjoying our team series, this is the perfect closing chapter - full of wisdom, experience, and fresh insights for rural business owners.

Do you feel like your business only runs because you're holding it together by sheer force of will?
