After 40 years in the industry Rick has decided it is time to retire. Rick ran a successful accounting firm in Naracoorte for more than 25 years which he merged with Murray Nankivell last year. Over the last 15 months Rick has worked diligently to make the merger a success and has continued to work with his many loyal clients for a smooth transition.

The whole team at Murray Nankivell want to acknowledge and thank Rick for his commitment to his clients and work ethic. We will miss his humour around the office and want to wish him a long and happy retirement.


Farewell fun with some of the team, left to right: Leah, Lewis, Rick, Aimee and Robyn.

"I like to think of it not so much as retirement, as extended leave and moving on to the next phase of life, spending more time fishing and travelling" says Rick. "I know I have left our clients in good hands with the Murray Nankivell team, who have been a pleasure to deal with during this transitional period".

"Some of our clients have been with me and the Mencel Business Services team for over 30 years, some family businesses for three generations and I have very much enjoyed our personal and business relationship".

"Thank you all so much for your support and the trust you have placed in me, Robyn and our team over the years. I hope in some significant way we have assisted your businesses to grow and prosper."

"Thank you again and all the very best for the future".
