Our consulting-led approach leverages services in strategy, process improvement, intelligent automation, data analytics, and operations. We specialise in supporting financial firms, accounting practices, and mortgage brokers.

HOW WE STARTED

In 2013, VBP embarked on a visionary journey to transform how advice is delivered in Australia. From humble beginnings, we steadily evolved and embraced an open book management system by adapting the Great Game of Business in February 2021, and in the same year, we secured our first Great Place To Work certification.

Expanding our reach became a defining theme in our journey. In July 2022, we proudly celebrated the achievement of 1000 dedicated Team Members.

We have offices in Cebu and in Cagayan de Oro, with our third and newest office launched last August 2023 at JEG Tower. 2023 marks a pivotal moment for our business as we completed the strategic acquisition of Elixir Consulting, strengthening our position in the Australian Consulting space and supporting our expanded service offering. We also won our GGOB Healthy Company Award, maintained our GPTW certification and ISO certification, and became a certified B Corporation.

These milestones reflect not only our commitment to growth but also the vibrant community we’ve fostered, laying the foundation for a remarkable legacy as expert growth partners for Australian financial services firms.
