Professional Accountant Recruitment Services
S&B Private connects Australian businesses with qualified offshore accounting professionals through our outsourced accountant recruitment services. We focus on long-term staffing where your team manages the workflow, and we provide trained offshore accounting professionals with ongoing post-placement support.

Why outsourcing your accountant recruitment makes business sense
1. Access to skilled accountants
We help you connect with offshore accountants who meet Australian standards and can manage bookkeeping, payroll, BAS preparation, and reporting. Our accounting recruitment process offers a dependable alternative when sourcing local talent is challenging, giving you access to experienced professionals who can contribute immediately.
2. Cost-conscious staffing solutions
Our approach to accountant recruitment helps you manage hiring and onboarding costs while retaining the flexibility to adjust staffing as needed. This method suits businesses joking for alternatives to traditional accounting recruitment agencies, which often focus only on placement rather than ongoing partnership.
3. Consistent performance and quality
Through structured training, our outsourced accountants maintain compliance knowledge, accuracy, and proficiency with leading accounting software. This ensures work quality remains stable over time and makes us a trusted outsourcing partner for Australian companies.
4. Meeting changing workforce needs
Staffing levels can be tailored to match shifts in workload or new business goals. This flexibility means you can meet operational demands without overburdening your in-house team. This is not always possible within every accountant recruitment agency model.
5. Seamless team integration
Professionals recruited through S&B Private work within your systems and follow your processes, becoming an extended part of your finance team from the start. Our involvement extends beyond initial placement, unlike many accounting recruitment agencies that end support once a role is filled.
6. Support across accounting functions
We can place professionals for a variety of needs, from Xero bookkeeping and MYOB bookkeeper positions to NetSuite accounting and payroll support to accountant support for accounting firms. This versatility makes our accountant recruitment service ideal for businesses that prefer a single provider instead of engaging multiple accounting recruiting companies.

How S&B outsourced accountants support accountant recruitment
Understanding your requirements
We work with you to identify the skills, qualifications, and experience your accounting role demands. This involves understanding your workflow, systems, and team culture, ensuring our accounting recruitment process matches the right person to your business
Sourcing and preparing candidates
We find and prepare candidates experienced in Australian accounting standards and platforms like Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, and NetSuite accounting. This preparation sets us apart from typical accountant recruitment agency models, as our candidates are job-ready on day one.
Long-term staffing partnerships
Our placements are ongoing rather than short-term. You manage daily priorities while we provide onboarding, ongoing training, and performance reviews. This model offers more continuity and an ongoing partnership compared to what is usually offered by an accounting temp agency.
Ongoing communication and feedback
We stay connected with you and the placed accountants through regular check-ins. This ongoing relationship is not common with every accounting recruitment provider, but it helps ensure continued alignment and success.

End-to-end recruitment process
We manage sourcing, screening, and placement for accountants who meet Australian reporting and compliance requirements. This full-cycle approach provides a more comprehensive solution than some accounting recruitment agencies. Our process includes multiple interviews and technical case studies to thoroughly assess the candidate’s ability.
Software-proficient staff
We supply accountants experienced in Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, NetSuite and Yardi accounting so they can contribute quickly within your systems. This capability is often overlooked by smaller accounting recruiting companies.
Role-specific placements
From Xero bookkeeper positions to Xero accountant roles, payroll support, and financial reporting, we match candidates to your needs. This tailored method is what distinguishes our service from generic accountant recruitment agency offerings.
Compliance-ready training
ur accountants are trained to assist with GST, BAS preparation, and compliance practices relevant to Australian businesses. This training ensures quality outcomes that are not always a focus in standard accounting temp agency placements.
Onboarding support
We assist with integrating new accountants into your team, helping them understand your workflows, tools, and expectations. Accounting recruitment agencies do not always include this step.
