Hire offshore · Finance

Hire an offshore staff accountant. Close on time.

A degreed accountant who owns reconciliations, accruals and the reporting package, so your controller or CFO can focus on the numbers that move the business.

1.The seat

Why companies hire an offshore staff accountant.

Growing companies and PE-backed businesses outgrow a bookkeeper long before they can justify another local accountant. The close slips, the board package is late, and the controller does the work of two people. A dedicated offshore staff accountant adds close capacity without adding a local salary to the overhead line.

Questions we ask every staff accountant finalist

  1. Walk me through how you would build an accrual schedule for a recurring vendor.
  2. Tell me about a month-end close you owned. What slowed it down and what did you change?
  3. How do you document a reconciliation so someone else can review it?
