FloQast, a provider of accounting workflow automation software created by accountants for accountants, announced its expansion into Australia and New Zealand, with plans to establish and scale a local headquarters in Sydney.
With global interest increasing as FloQast establishes itself “as an emerging international leader in accounting workflow technology, the expansion enables the company to service a growing regional customer base with a localized team.”
Leading the company’s push is seasoned fintech executive Jason Toshack, named as Managing Director, ANZ.
With more than 22 years of SaaS experience, Toshack joins FloQast “after spending more than 15 years with NetSuite, where he most recently served as the company’s Vice President and General Manager ANZ.”
As Managing Director, Toshack will focus “on growing FloQast’s ANZ presence, guiding all aspects of sales within the region, and helping develop local partnerships.”
Mike Whitmire, co-founder and CEO at FloQast, inactive CPA, said:
“We couldn’t be more excited to have Jason Toshack lead our expansion into the ANZ region. Jason’s wealth of experience and background make him uniquely qualified to drive FloQast’s mission of elevating finance and accounting teams in Australia and New Zealand.”

Toshack said:
“I’ve operated adjacent to FloQast over the course of my career and have watched it develop into a leading accounting technology company. I’m thrilled about the opportunity to join the team and build our presence in the region.”
