Ray McLaren


Since starting the practice in 1987 Ray has become the accounting equivalent of a GP. His skill set is based in General Accounting, Business Advising, Taxation & Trusts.

Ray was born and grew up in West Auckland, before going on to form McLaren Guise Associates to provide West and Greater Auckland businesses with accounting services. He prides himself on having a vast accounting knowledge which allows him to answer the variety of questions that clients come to him with (some not always business related). As a point of pride if Ray can’t provide you with an answer to a question, he will do everything he can to point you in the right direction as well as learning the answer for himself.


Outside the office Ray is a  dedicated family man and a bit of an exercise junkie. He enjoys spending time travelling and experiencing different cultures and their architecture.  In true West Auckland spirit Ray also has a healthy passion for cars and motorsport and has competed in circuit racing in the past.
