We’re proud to share some exciting news – Blackwood Bookkeeping Solutions has been shortlisted as a finalist in two categories in the 2026 Karbon Excellence Awards.

We have been recognised in the following categories:

• Balance & Culture – recognising firms that foster healthy work habits, strong team motivation, and a culture where people feel supported and able to thrive.
• Client Excellence – recognising firms that deliver exceptional client service through innovation, trusted relationships, and consistent results that drive long-term success.

This recognition is particularly meaningful given the scale of the awards. In 2026, over 600 accounting and bookkeeping firms from 7 countries were nominated, with the finalists representing roughly the top 9-10% of firms globally.

Recognition for the work our team does every day

For us, this recognition isn’t just about the business – it reflects the dedication, professionalism, and care our team brings to their work every day.

As a fully remote team, we have worked intentionally to build a supportive culture where people feel trusted, connected, and able to do their best work. The Balance & Culture category highlights that commitment to creating a workplace where our people can thrive.

Equally important is the recognition for Client Excellence. Our team works closely with business owners to provide clarity around their financial position, particularly cash flow, so they can make confident decisions about the future of their business.

Our purpose has always been simple: to help eradicate financial stress by giving business owners financial clarity.

What this means for our clients

For our clients, this recognition reinforces something we focus on every day – delivering consistent, reliable, and proactive financial support.

We know that behind every set of numbers is a business owner carrying responsibility for their team, their family, and their future. Our role is to help remove uncertainty, bring clarity to financial information, and support our clients in making informed decisions about their business.

Being recognised for Client Excellence reflects the strong relationships we build with the businesses we work with and the trust they place in us.

Looking ahead

The winners of the 2026 Karbon Excellence Awards will be announced on 2 June 2026.

Regardless of the outcome, we’re incredibly proud of the work our team does and grateful to the clients who trust us to support their businesses.

This recognition is a celebration of the people behind Blackwood Bookkeeping Solutions – our team, our clients, and the broader Blackwood Advisory community.
