The Quick Consols story began with its founder, Steven Auf, a Chartered Accountant, stuck behind a desk as a CFO of a large multinational FMCG business Dreading the manual reporting workload that lay ahead of every month end.
After searching high and low for an affordable and easy-to-use group financial reporting tool in the market and coming up empty-handed he decided to build one! And so Quick Consols began.
We created a financial reporting tool aimed specifically at group and complex companies. Our software automates the consolidation of complex groups with multiple year-ends, multiple currencies and multiple ERP systems with a slice and dice approach to reporting. Whilst retaining the structure, control and validation needed in a financial reporting tool we've managed to also provide the flexibility required for it to also work across multiple businesses and locations.
We are constantly evolving and building new, innovative systems with the aim to continue automating the reporting function for customers and change the role of the financial manager or CFO from preparer of information to analysing company performance. At the centre of its mission is a dedicated team that is focused on helping the finance community and tailoring the product to meet its customers' needs.
As a proudly South African company that's been built from the ground up with the user at the core, Quick Consols is now being utilised by a host of blue chip companies from a wide range of industries that include private equity to mining and logistics as we add new customers every month.
Our philosophy is simple — hire a team of diverse, passionate people and foster a culture that empowers you to do your best work.
