Accounting firms

Remote bookkeepers and accountants for growing firms.

Remote bookkeepers, accountants and admin support who work inside your firm's process, on your clients' platforms.

The work behind every client file

A firm's capacity problem usually sits in the volume beneath the advice: bank feeds to reconcile, receipts to chase, payables to enter, workpapers to prepare, and client emails asking where things stand. When that layer is covered, your senior people can spend their time reviewing, advising and winning new clients.

South Africa is often where we start these searches. The country has a deep pool of formally trained bookkeepers and accountants, many of them already used to working on international client files, and their working day overlaps with the UK and Europe and with the US morning. We search further afield when a role calls for it.

Where remote hires fit in a firm

Client bookkeeping

Daily entries, reconciliations, payables and receivables across a portfolio of clients. That's a Bookkeeper, matched to the platforms your clients use.

Close and reporting

Month-end close, management accounts and preparing files for your review. That's an Accountant.

Payroll for clients

Running client payrolls accurately and on time. That's a Payroll Specialist.

Your review stays in place

Remote staff prepare the work, and review and sign-off stay with your firm's licensed people, the same as for any junior member of staff. You decide which client files and systems each person can see.

Planning for the busy months

Year-end and filing deadlines create predictable peaks. Some firms add long-term capacity ahead of the peak; others add people for the busy months through Contract Staffing. Both are open to you.

Can one bookkeeper work across several of our clients?

Yes. They work for your firm and pick up whichever client files you assign them.

How do you check candidates who'll see client data?

Every hire passes background and reference checks first, and access to client data stays under your control.

Can they speak with our clients directly?

If you want them to. Some firms keep remote staff behind the scenes; others put them in client emails and calls. That's your choice.

Planning for next busy season?

Your client mix, your platforms and the months that hurt most usually show where the first hire should sit. We can look at them together.
