Nikhil Rijal
Senior SMSF Accountant
Qualifications: BBus, CPA, MAcc
Hello, I’m Nikhil – Senior Accountant and Self-Managed Superannuation Fund (SMSF) Specialist at Navwealth.
With over a decade of experience in public practice accounting and taxation, I put a client-first philosophy at the heart of my work. As a Certified Practising Accountant (CPA) and Registered Tax Agent, holding both a Bachelor of Business and a Master of Accounting, I combine technical expertise with a practical client-focused approach to financial problem solving.
I’m passionate about guiding clients through the complexities of Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs). Having also worked as an SMSF auditor, I bring a well-rounded perspective that helps balance strict regulatory compliance with real-world client practicality. Whether it’s compliance, administration, or strategy, I enjoy building long-term relationships and delivering meaningful outcomes – making complex financial matters easy for the clients to comprehend so they feel informed, supported, and confident in their decisions.
I take pride in being a clear communicator and a long-term partner—someone who’s approachable, thoughtful, and always solutions-focused.
Outside of work, I’m a devoted family man and father who loves staying active. On weekends, you’ll often find me on the tennis court, fine-tuning my one-handed backhand in local competitions—there’s always room for more topspin! Just like in sport, I believe in showing up, staying focused, and bringing my best self to everything I do.
