“I am thrilled to welcome Jared to Karbon.

Jared’s deep experience in partner engagement, strategy development and operational implementation will help us on our trajectory forward.”

“The last few years highlighted the need for accountants to access key information to guide their clients, communicate within their teams, and make the right decisions quickly, wherever they are,” Baker said. “I’m really excited that Karbon is further enabling this capability with its world-leading practice management platform.

This appointment further demonstrates the continued investment Karbon is making to support accounting firms in the Asia-Pacific region.
