Meet our director.
“It takes a lot of courage to go into business and then to be successful is an even greater challenge. Business owners put in everything to achieve financial success and a good quality of life for their families. I have been through this myself and my aim is to help you achieve your goals whatever they may be.”
Vince Ilarda – Founder and CEO
My story.
Growing up in Western Australia with a family background in business, I inherited my father’s strong work ethic and determination. He was a builder who dedicated himself to supporting his family, instilling in me a deep appreciation for the rewards that come with hard work.
After completing my degree in accounting, I joined a leading retail business with 450 stores across Australia. Starting as an accountant, I steadily rose through the ranks to become finance director within 15 years. During this time, I realised I had achieved everything I wanted with the company and decided to explore a new direction by starting my own accounting and tax practice.
My extensive commercial experience has given me a unique insight into the challenges faced by business owners beyond the realm of tax and accounting. As a business owner myself, I know firsthand the everyday struggles that you face. That’s why I am committed to offering a more comprehensive service than the traditional compliance-focused approach that many accountants take. I aim to work alongside you every step of the way, guiding you and providing you with the right advice when you need it. Because when you succeed, I succeed.
“The team at Prosperity Accountant provided me with proactive service and valuable advice, I have no hesitation in recommending them.”

“I cannot recommend Prosperity Accountants highly enough. Their team has been a lifesaver for my two fast food business. When I first came to them, my books were a mess and I was struggling to keep up with my tax obligations. They quickly got my books in order and helped me set up a system that made sense for my business.”
