Gil Levy is the principle of Gilsons Chartered Accountants and Chartered Tax Advisers

Gil spent the majority of his professional life as a tax partner with the international accounting firm Pannell Kerr Forster (now merged with BDO in Sydney) and the U.S. based accounting firm Arthur Andersen where he was the head of the Private Client Group in the Sydney Tax division.
Following the merger of Arthur Andersen (then known as Andersen) with Ernst and Young in 2002, Gil started the Sydney Branch of the accounting firm MGI Melbourne to provide specialist tax consulting services to their Sydney and offshore based clients and to continue to provide those services to ex Andersen clients.
In 2008 MGI Sydney became independent from Melbourne and in 2012 Gil retired from MGI and set up Gilsons, operating out of the MGI offices in Sydney.
In 2021 the practice relocated to Kelly Partners Tax and Legal, expanding the services to include a full suite of legal services.
