A background in recruitment, taxation, accounting and contractor management gives Matthew Franceschini a unique insight into the compliance and governance challenges organisations face when engaging Independent Professionals (IPros) on a contract basis.
After several years with the ATO and Adecco, the vision for Entity Solutions was born whilst Matthew was working for Icon Recruitment where he oversaw 130 contractors and 50 accounts.
Identifying a strong growth in the number of highly skilled, contract based professionals Entity Solutions was conceived as a means to provide services to this burgeoning workforce demographic. It soon became apparent that a market also existed for services to Australian enterprise, providing the means and know-how for corporations to engage with an increasing number of IPros in a risk free, well-governed and compliant manner.
As the CEO of Entity Solutions, Matthew is responsible for corporate governance and business strategy. He plays an active role in developing new business relationships and presenting to Federal Government on key areas of expertise, such as Migration and Australian Workplace Agreements and Reform.
Matthew holds a Bachelor in Economics from Monash University and is a qualified accountant and tax specialist. Matthew is a Director of the Independent Contractors of Australia, Co-Chairman of the Mates of Melbourne and a member of The Executive Connection (TEC).
He resides in Melbourne where entertaining friends and family over good food and great red is one of his favourite past times. An experienced traveller, Matthew has an active interest in sport, particularly golf and Australian Rules Football.
