Rethinking Business Finance for Australian Enterprises
We started omeralivex because too many smart business owners were drowning in spreadsheets while their creative potential gathered dust. Since 2019, we've been building something different.
The Conversation That Started Everything
Back in early 2019, Jasper Thornhill was sitting across from a café owner in Braddon who'd just launched the most innovative menu concept he'd seen in years. But she was three months behind on her books and missing opportunities because she couldn't see her cash flow clearly.
That's when it clicked. The real barrier wasn't lack of financial knowledge—it was that traditional finance tools treated creativity and numbers as separate worlds. They aren't. Every creative decision has financial ripples, and every financial choice opens or closes creative doors.
omeralivex grew from that insight. We're not here to replace accountants or turn you into a spreadsheet wizard. We help you understand your numbers well enough to make confident decisions about where your business goes next.
What Guides Our Work
These aren't just nice words on a wall. They're the principles that shape every conversation, every tool we build, and every piece of advice we offer.
Real Talk About Money
Financial jargon creates distance. We explain things the way you'd tell a friend—clearly, honestly, without the unnecessary complexity that makes people tune out. Your questions aren't stupid. The system that makes you feel that way is.
Context Matters More Than Rules
Cookie-cutter advice serves no one well. A strategy that works brilliantly for a Brunswick design studio might sink a consulting firm in Perth. We dig into your specific situation before suggesting anything.
Small Steps Beat Grand Plans
We've watched too many businesses stall while building the "perfect" financial system. Better to implement something simple this week that actually gets used than to design something comprehensive that stays in a drawer.
Your Business, Your Choices
We're here to clarify options and show likely outcomes. But you live with the results of business decisions, so you make the calls. Our job is making sure you understand what you're choosing and why it matters.
How We Actually Work With Clients
Most financial services follow a rigid process. We've found that rigid processes serve the service provider more than the client. Here's what usually happens when you work with us.
We Start With Questions
Not about your balance sheet—though we'll get there. We want to know where you're trying to take your business, what keeps you up at night, and which parts of financial management feel most frustrating right now.
Then We Look at Reality
Your current numbers tell a story. We help you read it—not just what happened, but why it happened and what patterns are forming. This isn't about judgment. It's about understanding so you can decide what to do differently.
We Build What You'll Use
Fancy systems that sit unused help no one. We create simple frameworks that fit how you actually work. If you hate spreadsheets, we won't build you a spreadsheet empire. If you need visual dashboards, that's what we'll focus on.

Jasper Thornhill
Founder & Principal Advisor
Background & Philosophy
Jasper spent seven years in corporate finance before realizing the most interesting problems weren't in the big firms. They were in the growing businesses that traditional financial services often overlook—companies too established for startup accelerators but too unconventional for standard business banking.
He's particularly interested in businesses where the product or service involves significant creative input. Not just design studios and marketing agencies, though he works with plenty of those. Also consulting firms, specialized manufacturers, and service businesses where the quality depends heavily on human expertise and judgment.
When he's not working with clients, Jasper teaches occasional workshops on financial literacy for creative professionals. He's been known to use unusual analogies—he once explained cash flow management using the mechanics of sourdough starter maintenance, which somehow made perfect sense to everyone in the room.
